It is negative six because down three is -3 so 3+3 =6 but the numbers are negative so the answer is -6
{-2x-5y=13
<u>{2x-5y=17 </u>(+)
<em /> -2x+2x-5y-5y=13+17
-10y=30 /:(-10)
y=-3
2x-5y=17
2x-5*(-3)=17
2x+15=17
2x=2
x=1
<em>Solution: (1; -3)</em>
They would be identical so it would be 114
1. Perimeter
22a + 2(6a + 8) -4 = p
[I got 22a from 12a + 10a]
2. If p = 250, what is a?
22a + 2(6a + 8) - 4 = 250
Distributive property
22a + 12a + 16 - 4 = 250
Add like terms
34a + 12 = 250
Subtract 12 by both sides
34a = 238
Divide 34 by both sides
a = 7
