Mathematics

Answer:

x = 6 and y = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

- 4 x - 2 y = -12.......equ No 1

 4 x +  8y = - 24.......equ No 2

Adding equ No 1 and equ No 2

6 y = - 36

∴ y = - 6

substitute y = - 6 in equ No 2

4 x + 8 y = -24

4 x + 8 ×( -6) = - 24

4 x - 48 = -24

4 x = -24 + 48

4 x = 24

∴ x = 6

x = 6 and y = - 6

What is the slope of the line whose equation is 12 equals 4x - 3 y?
lisov135 [29]
12=4x-3y Begin by moving the 4x away from the y. -3y=-4x+12. To get y by itself, divide both sides by -3. y= 4/3x -4. Therefore the slope is 4/3.

ky has 3 times more books than grant and grant has 6 fewer books than Jaime if the total combined number of books is 176 how man
sergiy2304 [10]
Number of books each of them have:

Jaime: x
Grant: x - 6
Ky: 3 (x - 6)

There are 176 books in total, so we can write it down as:

176 = x + x - 6 + 3 (x - 6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 * x + 3 * (-6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 2x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 5x - 24                        / + 24 (both sides)
5x = 200                              / ÷ 5 (both sides)
x = 40

Doublecheck:

Jamie: 40
Grant: 40 - 6 = 34
Ky: 3 (40 - 6) = 3 * 34 = 102

102 + 34 + 40 = 176, so it's correct :)
