3p + 2c + 6b = 27
2p + 3c + 4b = 23
4p + 1c + 8b = 31
===============
take any 2 equations and eliminate a variable

3p + 2c + 6b = 27
4p + 1c + 8b = 31....multiply by -2
---------------------
3p + 2c + 6b = 27
-8p - 2c - 16b = - 62 (result of multiplying by -2)
--------------------add
-5p - 10b = - 35

Now take one equation, and the other equation that u have not used already, and eliminate the same variable.

4p + 1c + 8b = 31.....multiply by -3
2p + 3c + 4b = 23
---------------------
-12p - 3c - 24b = - 93 (result of multiplying by -3)
2p + 3c + 4b = 23
----------------------add
-10p - 20b = - 70

now take ur 2 equations that u eliminated the c in, and eliminate another variable

-5p - 10b = -35......multiply by -2
-10p - 20b = -70
---------------------
10p + 20b = 70 (result of multiplying by -2)
-10p - 20b = -70
-------------------add
0 = 0

when u get a result such as  0 = 0....this means there is infinite solutions to this problem

Write a fraction greater than 1 for 2 using 3 as the denominator .​
hodyreva [135]
The question is a little confusing, but a fraction that is equal to 2 using 3 as a denominator is 6/3. Any addition to the numerator will make the number larger than 2; so 7/3, 10/3, 20/3 are all greater than 2.

Jk, I got you fam

12(t + 2) + 4 ≥ - 8

12t + 24 + 4 ≥ - 8

12t + 28       ≥ - 8

12t               ≥ - 8 - 28

12t               ≥ - 36

t                  ≥ - 36 ÷ 12

t                  ≥ - 3

Solution:

t ≥ -3

Find the error &amp; explain why it is wrong:
ICE Princess25 [194]

Step b is wrong. The slope is the change in y over the change in x.

Step b should be (18- 8)/( 10-6)

= 10/4

= 5/2
