Answer:

Option  A.)−4

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

4x+5y=-12 -----> equation A

-2x+3y=-16 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by elimination

Multiply the equation B by 2

2*(-2x+3y)=-16*2

-4x+6y=-32 -----> equation C

Adds equation A and equation C

4x+5y=-12

-4x+6y=-32

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

5y+6y=-12-32

11y=-44

y=-4

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of linear equations:

4x + 5y = −12

-2x + 3y = −16

Multiply second equation by 2 and add it to first equation.

4x+5y-4x+6y= -12-32

⇒ 11y= -44

Dividing both sides by 11

⇒ y= -4

Hence, the y-value in the solution to the system of linear equations

4x + 5y = −12

-2x + 3y = −16    is:

A.)−4

Liam says - (5/12) is equivalent to 5/-12. Explain if Liam is correct by completing the statements below.
makkiz [27]

A positive number divided by a positive number results in a negative quotient, and it's opposite is always positive. The fraction 5/-12 can be described as a positive number divided by a negative number, which always results in a negative quotient. The fractions have different value, so Liam is not correct.

X squared +10x-24<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%20%7B%3F%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%2B%2010x%20-%2024" id="TexFormula1" title="

Solve for x using factorizing:
x^2 + 10 x - 24 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:
(x - 2) (x + 12) = 0

Split into two equations:
x - 2 = 0 or x + 12 = 0

Add 2 to both sides:
x = 2 or x + 12 = 0
Subtract 12 from both sides:
Answer:  x = 2 or x = -12
