X-4y=-12
4x-y=12
eliminate y's
multily 2nd equaiton by -4 and add to top one
x-4y=-12
<u>-16x+4y=-48 +
</u>-15x+0y=-60
-15x=-60
divide both sides by -15
x=4
sub back
x-4y=-12
4-4y=-12
minus 4 both sides
-4y=-16
divide both sides by -4
y=4
x=4
y=4
(x,y)

425 is decreased to 319.
The above statement means that a number should be deducted from 425 to get the difference of 319.
Let x be the unknown number.
425 - x = 319
425 - 319 = x
106 = x
106 is the unknown number.
It can be phrased like this: 425 decreased by 106 is 319.
Answer:
x - 10, I believe
Step-by-step explanation:
The differences between the x-values and the y-values are
1) 12 & -12 = 0
2) -4 & 0 = 4
3) 0 & 7 = 7
4) 10 & 0 = -10
Since the question asks which must be A factor of p(x) or the y-value, I would advise to look for the answer that helps you receive one of the differences shown above. That said, I would go with <em>x - 10.</em>
<em />
Does that help?
The answer is b because if you look there is no Direct variation
