<span>Direct proof. A direct proof is a way of establishing the truth or falsehood of a given mathematical statement by a combination of established facts, usually axioms, lemmas and theorems. It assumes the hypothesis of a conjecture is true and then uses a series of logical deductions to prove that the conclusion as well.</span>
Answer:
x = -4, y = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify the 1st equation by dividing each term by 4 to get:
x + 2y = -1
-5x + 2y = 23
Subtract to get: 6x = -24
x = -4
find 'y': 2y - 5(-4) = 23
2y + 20 = 23
2y = 3
y = 3/2
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
After the third step, take the square root of both sides.
Third Step:

Thus, the fourth step is:

The left side cancels:

D.
Its a little complicated, so I cant rlly explain it on here. But yes, 2 questions can have more than one solution. Like how theres a problem in a story, but theres plenty of solutions to solve it.
