Answer: -5
Step-by-step explanation: 2 + -11 = -9 and subtract -4 from it since it’s the sum of 2 + -6. -9 - -4 is -9 + 4 so -5
Answer:
...what are the following for reference?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 2y = 12
-2x + 3y = 5 to find the solution we will use elimination method and for that, multiply second equation with 3 and the first equation with 2
<em>2 * 3x + 2y = 12</em>
<em>6x + 4y = 24</em>
<u>3 * -2x + 3y = 5</u>
<u>-6x + 9y = 15</u> now find the sum of both equation:
<em>6x + 4y </em><u>-6x + 9y</u> = 24 + 15 add like terms
13y = 39 divide both sides by 13
y = 3 now that we found the value of y we can use this to calculate the value of x
3x + 2y = 12 replace y with 3
3x + 2*2 = 12
3x + 4 = 12 subtract 4 from both sides
3x = 9 divide both sides by 3
x = 3
Answer:
slope is -3
it is the only one that makes sense because the line goes through -3
<span>450
Camila started with 450 cards. She gave Erin half of them (225) and her brother a sixth of them (75). She was left with 150 cards (450 - 225 - 75 = 150).
If x = number of cards Camila started with, then x/2 = half the cards and x/6 = one sixth of the cards. 150 = number of cards left.
This can be represented as:
x - x/2 - x/6 = 150
Multiply by 6 and solve for x
6x - 3x -x = 900
2x = 900
x = 450 = number of cards Camila started with</span>
