Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3
now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4
(-4,3)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
For #2, remember that
, so
Also, (a+b)(a-b), where a and b are any numbers, (a+b)(a-b)=
. Now, to simplify, or radicalize, a number with surds in the denominator, you have to multiply the denominator by its conjugate. If there is a complex number
, where a and b are any numbers, the conjugate is always
. Lets apply these rules. The conjugate of 4+6i is 4-6i, so do this:

Our answer is (28-3i)/(26)!
Plot these points and then draw the line
X = 0
Y = -3
X = -1
Y = -2
X= -2
Y = -1
No, a function has one input and one output
