Are you supposed to estimate or get an exact answer? If you're estimating you can see if the number is close to any perfect squares. In this case 63 is very close to 64, and 48 is very close to 49. The answers can then be estimated to be approximately 8 and 7, respectively.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
I had the quiz as well :)
So elimination method is basically adding the equations and canceling out variables.
-6x + 6y = 6
-6x + 3y = -12
The eaiest way to solve is by multiplying the bottom equation by -1.
-6x + 6y = 6
6x - 3y = 12
Now you add the eqautions.
3y = 18
Divde 3 from both sides.
y = 6
Now plug in 6 into any of the original two equations. Lets use the first one.
-6x + 6(6) = 6
-6x + 36 = 6
Subtract 36 from both sides.
-6x = -30
Divide -6 from both sides.
x = 5
So your solution is (5, 6).
I hope this helps love! :)
