6j + 1/3n = 134...multiply by 3....18j + n = 402
1/3j + n = 31....multiply by 3....j + 3n = 93

the multiplying by 3 is optional...I just did it because it is easier to work with equations when there are no fractions.

18j + n = 402....multiply by -3
j + 3n = 93
----------------
-54j - 3n = - 1206 (result of multiplying by -3)
j + 3n = 93
----------------add
-53j = - 1113
j = -1113/-53
j = 21

j + 3n = 93
21 + 3n = 93
3n = 93 - 21
3n = 72
n = 72/3
n = 24

so Jasons collection (j) consists of 21 books and Nathans collection (n) consists of 24 books

All of the x values are the same so it is not moving left or right.
The y values are changing by being 2 less than the original. 
If you subtract 2 from each y value you get the new set of ordered pairs.

Make a the subject of a2+b2=c2
wel

Answer:

a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2

⇒ a=\sqrt{(c+b)(c-b)}        [Factorized form]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

a^2+b^2=c^2

We need to make a the subject.

In order to do that we need to solve the expression for a in terms of b and c

We have,

a^2+b^2=c^2

Subtracting both sides by b^2

a^2+b^2-b^2=c^2-b^2

a^2=c^2-b^2

Taking square root both sides in order to remove square of a

\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{c^2-b^2}

a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2

The difference of squares can be factorized and written  as:

a=\sqrt{(c+b)(c-b)}    [difference of squares x^2-y^2=(x+y)(x-y) ]
