If the solution exists, y=y....
3x+2=-x/4+1 make everything have a common denominator of 4...
(12x+8)/4=(-x+4)/4 now multiply both sides by 4
12x+8=4-x add x to both sides
13x+8=4 subtract 8 from both sides
13x=-4 divide both sides by 13
x=-4/13
x≈-0.31 and the only pair in your choices having an x value close to that is:
(-0.3, 1.1)
Let garret’s age be x
x + 2 + (x + 3) + 2 = 39
2x + 7 = 39
2x = 32
x = 32/2
x = 16
Garrett’s age after two years = 16 + 2 = 18
Answer:
2n - 7 = 3n - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Just count the n's and the (-1)'s
Answer:
-4u -5v
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sum be ...
<3, -27> = a<3, 3> +b<-3, 3>
This resolves to two equations
3 = 3a -3b
-27 = 3a +3b
Adding these together, we get
-24 = 6a
a = -4
Substituting into the second equation gives ...
-27 = 3(-4) +3b
-15 = 3b
-5 = b
The desired linear combination is ...
<3, -27> = -4<3, 3> -5<-3, 3> = -4u -5v
