Answer:

3x=-y+12

2x+3y=-6

collecting the like terms we have

3x+y=12

2x+3y=-6

to solve this simultaneous equation, we use substitution method

we make y the subject in equation one:

y=12-3x

then we put y=12-3x into 2x-3y=-6 in equation two

2x+3(12-3x)=-6

2x+36-9x=-6

-7x+36=-6

-7x=-6-36

-7x=-42

x=-42÷-7

x=6

then we put x=6 in y=12-3x:

y=12-3x

y=12-3(6)

y=12-18

y=-6

Are 5(2x-y) and 15x-5y equivalent expressions?

krek1111 [17]

No, they are not equivalent.

5(2x - y) = 10x - 5y and it is not equal to 15x - 5y.

tatiyna

Answer:

8x³ + 12x² - 16x - 16

General Formulas and Concepts:

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define expression

(4x² - 2x - 4)(2x + 4)

Step 2: Simplify

Expand: 8x³ - 4x² - 8x + 16x² - 8x - 16
Combine like terms (x²): 8x³ + 12x² - 8x - 8x - 16
Combine like terms (x): 8x³ + 12x² - 16x - 16

Line E'F' has endpoints located at E'(1,0) and F'(1,3). Line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the orgin. Which statement de

Lerok [7]

Answer:

If line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the origin to get line E'F', then if line E'F' is dilated by a scale of 2 from the origin, EF is obtained. Also, the length of EF is double than the length of E'F'.

Dilation by a scale of 2 from the origin transforms point (x,y) into (2*x, 2*y)

E'(1,0) -> E(2,0)

F'(1, 3) ->F(2, 6)

length of E'F': 3

length of EF: 6
