3(x+1)-2x=-6
3x+3-2x=-6
(Like terms) 3x-2x=1x
3+1x=-6
-6-3+-9
Now you’re going to divide -9 by 3 which you will get -3
That will be your answer, hope that help you

Answer:x=−9

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the distributive property.

3 x + 3 ⋅ 1 − 2 x = − 6

Multiply 3 by 1

3 x + 3 − 2 x = − 6

Subtract 2x from 3x.

x + 3 = − 6

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

x = − 6 − 3

Subtract 3 from − 6 .

x = − 9

Y=-x^2+2x+10 y=x+2 Substitution Please show your work Need ASAP

erik [133]

Answer:

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=-x^{2} +2x+10$ ----> equation A

$y=x+2$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

$x+2=-x^{2} +2x+10$

solve for x

$-x^{2} +2x+10-x-2=0$

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

$a=-1\\b=1\\c=8$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(-1)(8)}} {2(-1)}$

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{33}} {-2}$

$x=\frac{-1+\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-1-\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

Find the values of y

For $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

For $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

therefore

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$
