If you use the first answer, the equation becomes 2x + 2y = 16. You could subtract this from equation Q to eliminate x.
The second answer makes equation P -2x - 2y = -16. You could add this to equation Q to eliminate x. You can use both of these methods to eliminate the x term, but if you can only choose one, you should choose the second option.
Answer:
1. Below 2. B. d = 8h
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is a bit confusing. But basically, substitute x for the numbers they give you.
5x
5 · 1 = 5 = y
5 · 2 = 10 = y
5 · 3 = 15 = y
5 · 4 = 20 = y
7x
7 · 1 = 7 = y
7 · 2 = 14 = y
7 · 3 = 21 = y
7 · 4 = 28 = y
But what are we meant to unscramble?
By the way, if you haven’t noticed this is maths not english
-3x+13=16
Move +13 to the other side. Sign changes from +13 to -13.
-3x+13-13=16-13
-3x=16-13
-3x=3
Divide by -3 for both sides.
-3/-3x=3/-3
Cross out -3 and -3, divide by -3, then becomes 1*1*x=x
x=-1
Answer: x=-1
Mars year is 1.88 of your Earth years.
So if you are 13,
1.88 x 13=24.44, or 24 years old, I think.
