1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The  solution is (7, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 6y = 8    Multiply this by  -5.

5x - 4y = 31   Multiply this by 2.

-10x + 30y = -40  ...(1)

10x   - 8y = 62.........(2)

Adding (1) and (2):

22y =  22

y = 1.

Substitute for y in the first equation:

2x - 6(1) = 8

2x = 14

x = 7.

13. Solve the equation: y = 4x + ax + 6 for a.
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

a= (y-4x-6)/X

Step-by-step explanation:

Make ax the subject of the formulae

-ax=4x+6-y

Multiply both sides by minus (-)

ax= y-4x-6

Divide both sides by x

a= (y-4x-6)/x

Myra combined the like terms in the algebraic expression correctly. Which statement correctly describes what Myra did?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The answer would be the first one, combining 8 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the 2 like terms are 8x^2 and -2x^2. You can get this by looking in the problem. There are 2 terms with x^2 which means we have to combine them. One of them is 8x^2 (the 1st one) and the other is -2x^2 (since it says 7-2x^2)

If you combine these you will get 6x^2 [8+(-2)=6]
