Hello :
the solution is : <span>(3, -1)
put x= 3 and y = -1
you have : 3-(-1) = 4 and 3+(-1) = 2 ..... right</span>
Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Correct simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Open parenthesis
= - 1.7 - 6.3
= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6

Answer:
- 6x +y = -6
- 6x -y = 8
- 5x +y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
To rewrite these equations from point-slope form to standard form, you can do the following:
- eliminate parentheses
- subtract the x-term
- subtract the constant on the left
- if the coefficient of x is negative, multiply by -1
Of course, any operation you do must be done <em>to both sides of the equation</em>.

1. y -6 = -6(x +2)
y -6 = -6x -12 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
6x +y -6 = -12 . . . . . add 6x
6x +y = -6 . . . . . . . . add 6
__
2. y +2 = 6(x -1)
y +2 = 6x -6
-6x +y +2 = -6
-6x +y = -8
6x -y = 8 . . . . . . . . multiply by -1
__
3. y -3 = -5(x -2)
y -3 = -5x +10
5x +y -3 = 10
5x +y = 13

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "standard form" of a linear equation is ax+by=c for integers a, b, c. The leading coefficient (generally, 'a') should be positive, and all coefficients should be mutually prime (have no common factors). That is why we multiply by -1 in problem 2.
So, let's solve all of them and see:
a - (-b) = a + b ⇒ can be either positive or negative, depending on the numbers
a + (-b) = a - b ⇒ can either be positive or negative, depending on the numbers
a * (-b) = a * (-b) ⇒ negative answer no matter what
a / (-b) = a / (-b) ⇒ negative answer no matter what
So the answer is:
<em>"None of the above"</em>.
