Answer:
A) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficients of the second equation are 1/3 of those of the first equation. If the constant of the second equation is also 1/3 of the constant of the first equation, then the equations are <em>dependent</em>, and will have an infinite number of solutions.
The constant must be something other than 1/3·15 = 5 to make the equations <em>inconsistent</em>, having no solutions.
I know I dislike it as well! Sorry you are having trouble with it! :)
Answer:
1) 
2) 
Step-by-step explanation:
You can convert he mixed numbers to improper fractions:
1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction.
2. Add the product obtained to the numerator.
3. The denominator does not change.
Then:

Observe that, in each subtraction, the denominators are equal, then you can rewrite the denominator and subtract the numerators:

Divide 15 by 4. The quotient will be 3 and the remainder 3.
Then:

Answer:
(2x-8)(2x+8)
4x squared -64 is the answer
how you get it is by multiplying 2x times 2x to get 4x squared and -8 times 8 = -64
hope this helps
if this is algebra 1 then this is right
