Answer:

x = - 5, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x + 2y = - 9 → (1)

4x - 2y = - 26 → (2)

Adding (1) and (2) term by term eliminates the y- term, that is

7x = - 35 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = - 5

Substitute x = - 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

3(- 5) + 2y = - 9

- 15 + 2y = - 9 ( add 15 to both sides )

2y = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 3

Someone please help me answer this!!
Liula [17]

Answer:

100 in is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 60 in

b = 80 in

c = ?

According to the Pythagorean theorem,

a² + b² = c²

60² + 80² = c²

3600 + 6400 = c²

c² = 10000

c = 100 in

∴ the distance between the opposite corners of the bed is 100 in

Factor <br> (a-2b) (3x-5y) + (2b-a)(x-y)
agasfer [191]

Answer:

8by + 2ax - 4bx - 4ay

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean expand so:

(a - 2b)(3x - 5y) + (2b - a)(x - y)

3ax - 5ay - 6bx + 10by + 2bx - 2by - ax + ay

Now collect like terms:

2ax - 4ay - 4bx + 8by

This is your answer but in a better order:

8by + 2ax - 4bx - 4ay
