A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.
From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.
Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.
Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.
Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.
Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.
-2(2)+3(3)=?
-4+9=?
5
Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.
For this case, as Josh worked more than 40 hours, he was able to receive a payment
($ 8.20 / h) * (40 h) = 328
1.5(8.20) *8.75 = <span>
<span>107.625
</span></span> 328+107.625= 435.625
the gross earnings for Pruitt are 435.625 $
Answer:
x = 2
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 2y = -2, then 2y = -2 - 2x
3x - 2y = 12, then 2y = 3x - 12
so:
-2 - 2x = 3x - 12
add 2x and 12 to each side of the equation:
5x = 10
divide both sides by 5:
x = 2
2y = 3(2) - 12
2y = -6
divide both sides by 2:
y = -3

Answer: 11 cans</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
SA = surface area of the sphere
SA = 4*pi*r^2
SA = 4*pi*8^2
SA = 804.247719
The surface area is roughly 804.247719 sq ft.
I used the calculator's stored version of pi to get the most accuracy possible.
Since 1 paint can covers 75 sq ft, divide that surface area over 75 to find out how many cans you need.
804.247719/75 = 10.72330292
Round up to the nearest integer to get 11
You'll have leftover paint, but it's better to go over the goal than come up short.
Answer:
3x^2−13x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
(x−4)(3x−1)
=(x+−4)(3x+−1)
=(x)(3x)+(x)(−1)+(−4)(3x)+(−4)(−1)
=3x^2−x−12x+4
=3x^2−13x+4
