Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3(6c+4)-(8c-5)
1) Get rid of the negative signs
New equation (the ones in bold are the changes): 2/3(6c+4)+(-8c)+(5)
2) Use distributive property for the first part by multiplying 2/3*6c= 4c and 2/3*4= 2 2/3
New equation: 4c+2 2/3+ (-8c) + 5
3) Combine like terms: 4c+(-8c)= -4c and 2 2/3+5= 7 2/3
New and simplified equation: -4c+ 7 2/3
2(3r+7)−(2+r)
Use distributive property:
6r + 14 - 2 - r
Simplify by combining like terms:
5r +12
Answer:
(-2, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
–2x + 2y = -4
3х + Зу = -18
Divide the first equation by 2
–2x/2 + 2y/2 = -4/2
-x +y = -2
Divide the second equation by 3
3х/3 + Зу/3 = -18/3
x + y = -6
Add these equation together
-x +y = -2
x + y = -6
-------------------
0x + 2y = -8
2y = -8
Divide each side by 2
2y/2 = -8/2
y = -4
Now we need x
x+y = -6
x-4 = -6
Add 4 to each side
x-4+4 = -6+4
x = -2
