Answer:
7k
____________________________________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to combine like terms with the expression: -k - ( - 8k)
We are pretty much solving it.
Solve:
-k - ( - 8k)
The "- ( -" turns into a plus sign.
So it would look like:
-k - -8k or -k + 8k
Now, you would finish solving
-k + 8k = 7k

So use cancelation
multiply first equation by 2
2x+8y=10
times 2
4x+16y=20
now add
4x+16y=20
<u>-4x-9y=-13 +
</u>0x+7y=7
7y=7
divide by 7
y=1
subsittue
2x+8y=10
2x+8(1)=10
2x+8=10
subtract 8 from both sides
2x=2
divide by 2
x=1
x=1
y=1

-4.9
a negative will overcome the positive always
18 = 2x +4
Subtract 4 from each side:
14 = 2x
divide both sides by 2:
X = 14/2 = 7 dollars per hour
