4x - 2y = 14
y = 0.5x -1
Get just one variable on one side for both equations.
4x - 2y = 14 ⇒ 4x = 2y + 14 ⇒ 4x - 14 = 2y
y = 0.5x - 1 ⇒ x - 2 = 2y
Use the transitive property and then solve for x.
x-2 = 4x-14
12 = 3x
x = 4

Answer:
2x^2-2x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>If you would like to know in which step did the student first make
an error, you can find this using the following steps:
y = 4 - 2z
4y = 2 - 4z
________________
-4(y) = -4(4 - 2z)
</span>4y = 2 - 4z<span>
________________
-4y = -16 + 8z ... Step 2
</span><span>4y = 2 - 4z</span><span>
________________
0 = -16 + 8z + 2 - 4z</span>
<span>16 - 2 = 4z</span>
<span>14 = 4z</span>
<span>z = 14/4 = 7/2</span>
<span>
The correct result would be: Student made an error in Step 2.</span>
Answer:
7n^3 + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
(4 + 2n^3) + (5n^3 + 2) =
= 2n^3 + 5n^3 + 4 + 2
= 7n^3 + 6
