You can only multiply and add with associative property. are you talking about distributive property or identity property
If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
2x - y = -2
x = 14 + 2y
__________
<span>2x - y = -2
</span>2 * (14 + 2y) - y = -2
28 + 4y - y = -2
28 + 3y = -2
3y = -2 - 28
3y = -30 /3
y = -30/3
y = -10
<span>x = 14 + 2y = 14 + 2 * (-10) = 14 - 20 = -6
</span>
(x, y) = (-6, -10)
The correct result would be <span>(-6, -10).</span>
Answer:
Part 1) Australia 
Part 2) China 
Part 3) Mexico 
Part 4) Zaire 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of a exponential growth function is given by

where
P(t) is the population
t is the number of years since year 2000
a is he initial value
r is the rate of change
Part 1) Australia
we have

substitute


Find the expected population in 2025,
Find the value of t
t=2005-2000=5 years
substitute the value of t in the equation

Part 2) China
we have

substitute


Find the expected population in 2025,
Find the value of t
t=2005-2000=5 years
substitute the value of t in the equation

Part 3) Mexico
we have

substitute


Find the expected population in 2025,
Find the value of t
t=2005-2000=5 years
substitute the value of t in the equation

Part 4) Zaire
we have

substitute


Find the expected population in 2025,
Find the value of t
t=2005-2000=5 years
substitute the value of t in the equation
