Step-by-step explanation:

By using Distributive Property on 3(-x - 2),

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

Since -3x - 6 =/= -3x + 6,

they are not equalized.

There are five times as many cars as trucks on the road. Which fraction represents the number of vehicles that are trucks?

jonny [76]

Well, the ratio of cars to trucks is 5:1, so for every 1 truck, there are 5 cars, the sum would be 6. So that's the denominator, and then the numerator would be 1, since there's only 1 truck out of every 6 vehicles.

Answer: D. 1/6

Please help me with this

Answer:

Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations are given to us. And we need to solve them . The given system is

$\begin{cases} y = 2x - 3\dots 1 \\ y = x^2 - 3\dots 2 \end{cases}$

We numbered the equations here . Now put the value of equation 1 in equation 2 that is substituting y = 2x - 3 in eq. 2 .

$\implies y = x^2 - 3 \\\\\implies 2x - 3 = x^2 - 3 \\\\\implies x^2 - 2x = 0 \\\\\implies x(x-2) = 0 \\\\\implies\red{ x = 0 , 2 }$

We got two values of x as 0 & 2 . Alternatively substituting these values we have ,

$\implies y = 2 x - 3 \\\\\implies y = 2(0)-3 \qquad or \qquad y = 2(2)-3 \\\\\implies y = 0-3 \qquad or \qquad 4 - 3 \\\\\implies \red{ y = -3 , 1 }$

Thefore the required answer is ,

$\red{Option\:c} \begin{cases} (0,-3) \\ (2,1) \end{cases}$
