Answer:
(2, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 6x - 11 → (1)
- 2x - 3y = - 7 → (2)
Substitute y = 6x - 11 into (2)
- 2x - 3(6x - 11) = - 7 ← distribute and simplify left side
- 2x - 18x + 33 = - 7
- 20x + 33 = - 7 ( subtract 33 from both sides )
- 20x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 20 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = 6(2) - 11 = 12 - 11 = 1
Solution is (2, 1 )
Answer: 28-6x
This is the same as -6x+28
===============================
To get that answer, you multiply each term inside the parenthesis by the outer term 2
14 * 2 = 28
-3x * 2 = -6x
So,
(14-3x)*2 = 14*2 - 3x*2 = 28-6x
----------
The distribution rule says
a(b-c) = ab-ac
which is the same as saying
(b-c)a = ba-ca
We can flip things around because we can multiply in any order.
x=7-13
