Answer:
x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1-3x = x+3
Add 3x to each side
1-3x+3x = x+3x+3
1 = 4x+3
Subtract 3 from each side
1-3 = 4x+3-3
-2 = 4x
Divide each side by 4
-2/4 = 4x/4
-1/2 =x
Given equations are;<span>
2a + 3b = -1 ..................equation 1
3a + 5b = -2 ....................equation 2</span>
Now multiply equation 1 with (-3)
The equation will be;
-6a -9b = 3 …………………..equation 3
Now multiply equation 2 with (2)
The equation will be;
6a + 10b = -4 ……………..equation 4
Now add equation 3 and equation 4
-6a – 9b = 3
<span>6a + 10b = -4</span>
<span>------------------------------</span>
0a + b = -1
b = -1
Now put the value of b in equation 1
2a + 3(-1) = -1
2a -3 = -1
2a = -1+3
2a = 2
a=1
Thus the solution is (a,b) = (1,-1)

Answer:
d. May
Step-by-step explanation:
Working through the chain, we have ...
Feb = 1.10×Jan
Mar = 0.85×Feb = 0.935×Jan
Apr = 1.20×Mar = 1.122×Jan
May = 0.90×Apr = 1.0098×Jan
Jun = 1.05×May = 1.06029×Jan
The multiplier that is closest to 1 is 1.0098, so May has sales closest to January.
_____
The percentage increase or decrease can be converted to a multiplier by adding it to 1. If p% is the percentage change, then adding it to an original value looks like ...
original + p% × original = original × (1 +p%) . . . . . . . distributive property
And p% translates to a decimal number by replacing % with /100 or ×0.01.
10% increase: original × (1 + 10/100) = original × 1.10
15% decrease: original × (1 - 15/100) = original × 0.85
