Ok, so you are given the value of P=q+2
The substitution method tells us that we must insert the value we know, into the second equation, 4P+3q= -27
Doing so will give us 4(q+2)+3q= -27
For right now, lets just focus on the first part, 4(q+2)
We can simplify this by distributing(multiplying) the 4 to whats inside the variables.
This will give us 4q+8
now lets add this back to the rest of the equation >>> 4q+8+3q = -27
We can further simplify by adding like terms >>> 7q+8 = -27
subtract the 8 from both sides >>> 7q = -35
now divide both sides by 7 >>> q = -35/7
Therefor q = -5
EDIT*
now that we know q = -5 we can put q into the equation for P !
we know that p=q+2
so lets put q in now >>> p=(-5)+2
and simplify>>> p = -3
I hope this helps:)
Okay. I think what you mean by this is 8.038 * 10^8. 10^8 = 100,000,000. When you multiply that by 8.038, you get 803,800,000. The answer is D.
LAW 2: The second law of indices tells us that when dividing a number with an exponent by the same number with an exponent, we have to subtract the powers. In algebraic form, this rule is as follows . The a represents the number that is divided by itself and m and n represent the powers.
subsitute x = 6 into the lengths
3(6) -7
18 - 7
11cm
(6) + 5
11cm
therefore it is a square when x = 6 because the sides are all equal
