2 1/3 and it is the same for me lol
Answer:
2-3 is an expression. Right?
Step-by-step explanation:If so, that was easy.
The LCD is 12. Thus, your
(x-2)/4 - (x+3)/3 = -2 becomes 12((x-2)/4 - (x+3)/3 = -2), or
3(x-2) - 4(x+3) = -36
Then 3x - 6 - 4x - 12 = -36. Combining like terms,
-x = -36 + 18, or -x = -18, or x = 18.
Check this result by subbing 18 for x in the given equation.
Please note: You must use parentheses here as indicated to eliminate any ambiguity about order of operations and what divides into what.
Answer:
(-1, 4)

- Equality Properties
<u>Algebra I</u>
- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define systems</u>
10x + 6y = 14
-x - 6y = -23
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Add 2 equations together: 9x = -9
- Divide 9 on both sides: x = -1
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define original equation: -x - 6y = -23
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: -(-1) - 6y = -23
- Multiply: 1 - 6y = -23
- Subtract 1 on both sides: -6y = -24
- Divide -6 on both sides: y = 4
