Hi Kristian
a - 3b = 22
a = b - 2
We need to solve a = b -2 for a
First, we need to substitute b - 2 for a in a - 3b = 22
a - 3b = 22
b - 2 - 3b = 22
-2b - 2 = 22
-2b = 22 + 2
-2b = 24
b = 24/-2
b = -12
Now substitute -12 for b in a = b - 2
a = b -2
a= -12 - 2
a= -14
Thus, the solution is a = -14 and b = -12
The correct option is the last one (-14,-12)
If you have questions about my answer, please let me know.
Good luck!
Answer:
m=2
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP 1 : m+0.6=2.6
move constant to the right-hand side and change it's sign m=2.6-0.6
STEP 1: m=2.6-0.6
subtract the numbers m=2
Answer:
I will try to do it
Step-by-step explanation:
Original is the whole = 5/5
After reduction is 2/5
2/5 =0.4 = 40%
Draw a rectangle.
Divide it in 5 parts
Shade 2 parts.
This is the new dimension 2/5 or 40%
