2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y - 14
(Simplify like terms in first half of equation)
3y + 6 = 5y - 14
(Subtract both sides by 3y)
6 = 2y - 14
(Flip)
2y - 14 = 6
(Add both sides by 14)
2y = 20
(Divide both sides by 2)
y=10
-2 -3 / 3 - 1
-5 / 2
So the slope of the points is -5/2, and I have no explanation other than I used to point slope formula.
Answer:
Elimination method
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a choice to eliminate the y or x:
I chose x
So now we double the second equation to make the co efficient of x the same:
6x-5y = -3
6x+4y = 24
Now we subtract both equations to eliminate the x's:
6x-5y = -3
- - -
6x+4y = 24
-9y = -27
y = 3
Now we substitute this value into either equation 1 or 2:
I chose 2
3x + 2(3) =12
Simplify:
3x + 6 =12
Subtract 6 from both sides:
3x + 6 -6 = 12 -6
Simplify:
3x = 6
Divide both sides by 3:
3x÷3 = 6÷3
Simplify:
x = 2
Answer:
x⁴ - 8x² + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The Area of the smallest square is A1 = x . x = x²
The Area of the second square is A2 = ( x² - 3 )(x² - 3)
A2 = x⁴ - 3x² - 3x² + 9
A2 = x⁴ - 6x² + 9
The Area of the Shaded shape is A2 - A1
x⁴ - 6x² + 9 - x²
x⁴ - 8x² + 9
