Answer:

the solution is (-4, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 2. This produces 4x + 2y = -14.

Now combine this result with the second equation:

4x + 2y = -14

-3x - 2y = 10

------------------

x = -4

Subbing -4 for x in the first equation yields 2x - 4 = -7, or 2x = -3.

Then x = -3/2, and the solution is (-4, -3)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation in a simpler form so it doesn't look like a mess of numbers:

$7+\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3}+\sqrt{5} -7 -\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3}-\sqrt{5}$

Because we are just adding three terms together and then subtracting those exact terms, we have the answer as 0.

Answer:

n = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

14n = 11n + 81 (Given)

14n - 11n = 11n - 11n + 81 (Subtraction Property of Equality)

3n = 81 (Simplify)

$\frac{3n}{3} = \frac{81}{3}$ (Division Property of Equality)

n = 27 (Simplify)

Simplify the expression. 8P3

koban [17]

Answer:

336

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the definition of n $P_{r}$ = n ! / (n- r) !

where n ! = n(n - 1)(n - 2).... × 3 × 2 × 1

8 $P_{3}$

= 8 ! / (8 - 3) !

= 8 ! / 5 !

= $\frac{8(7)(6)(5)(4)(3)(2)(1)}{5(4)(3)(2)(1)}$

[ cancel 5(4)(3)(2)(1) on numerator/denominator

= 8 × 7 × 6 = 336
