Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3
now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4
(-4,3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
= x - 5 ( x ≥ 3 )
( )² = ( x - 5 )²
x - 3 = x² - 10x + 25
x² - 11x + 28 = 0
(x - 4)(x - 7) = 0
= 7
= 4
Check the answer:
1). x = 7
= 7 - 2
√4 = 2
2 = 2
2). x = 4
= 4 - 5
1 = - 1 (False statement) ⇒ x = 4 is an extraneous solution.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
consider the two points. Gradient=change in y/change in x. So 4/2=2
Answer:
The constant rate of change is the average change that happens between a time period. In slope-intercept form, it is the mx part of the equation.
y = mx + b
Answer:1+3x+9+x+8+2x= 6x+9
so =3(x+3)
