Hey there!
The distributive property is defined as:
a(b+c) = ab+ac.
Since a is being multiplied by b and c, it's a common factor. In this situation, our common factor is 6, as it goes into 6x and 42. So, we have:
6(7 + x)
Hope this helps!
OPTION D. No
as there is no common difference
Answer:
The solution to the system of equations is
Explanation:
Giving the system of equations:
To solve this, we need to first of all eliminate one variable from any two of the equations.
Subtracting (2) from twice of (1), we have:
Subtracting (3) from 3 times (1), we have
From (4) and (5), we can solve for y and z.
Subtract 5 times (5) from 3 times (4)
Using the value of z obtained in (5), we have
Using the values obtained for y and z in (1), we have
point slope form of a line
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-4 = -3(x--5)
y-4 =-3(x+5)
to change to slope intercept form
dstribute
y-4 = -3x-15
add 4 to each side
y = -3x-15+4
y = -3x-11
