You can plug -x - 1 for y in the first equation

2x - (-x - 1) = 10

2x + x + 1 = 10

Combine

3x = 9

Divide

x = 3

Plug 3 for x in any equation ( I'll use th second equation )

y = - (3) - 1

y = - 3 - 1 = -4

x = 3 ; y = -4

(3, -4)

2x - y = 10 .............(a)

y = -x - 1 ...........(b)

Substitute y = - x - 1 into equation (a)

<span>2x - y = 10
</span>
2x - (-x - 1) = 10

2x + x + 1 = 10

3x + 1 = 10

3x = 10 - 1

3x = 9

x = 9/3 = 3. x = 3

Recall, y = -x - 1 = -3 - 1 = -4

Hence solution (x, y) = (3, -4)

The true statement about this information is that: A. It is both a relation and a function.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

A function can be defined as a mathematical expression which can be used to define and represent the relationship that exist between two or more variables in a population.

In this context, we can infer and logically deduce that the true statement about this information collected by Jen is that it's both a relation and a function because it indicates a relationship between two variables.

The sum of two polynomials is 10a2b2 – 8a2b 6ab2 – 4ab 2. if one addend is –5a2b2 12a2b – 5, what is the other addend? 15a2b2 –

Brrunno [24]

The other polynomial addend, when the sum of two polynomials is 10a2b2 – 8a2b 6ab2 – 4ab is 15a²b²- 20a²b + 6ab² - 4ab + 7.

<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>

Polynomial equations is the expression in which the highest power of the unknown variable is n (n is real number).

The sum of two polynomials is,

$10a^2b^2 - 8a^2b+ 6ab^2 - 4ab+2$
