Answer:c
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a + b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this system of equations, we can use a strategy called elimination, which is when we get rid of a variable by adding/subtracting two equations.
Firstly, we want to make sure the absolute value of the coefficients that equal.
Lets eliminate b:
4a + 6b = 24
Multiply both sides by 2:
8a + 12b = 48
We also have:
6a - 12b = -6.
Now lets add that with
8a + 12b = 48
-> 6a + 8a + 12b - 12b = 48 -6
-> 14a = 42
-> a = 3
Now that we know a, lets plug it into one of our original equations:
4(3) + 6b = 24
12 + 6b = 24
6b = 12
b = 2
Finally, add the two values we found:
a+b = 2+3= 5
Answer:
x ≥ 6 or x ≤ -2
Step-by-step explanation:
- I x - 2 I + 4 ≤ 0
- I x - 2 I ≤ -4
I x - 2 I ≥ 4
x - 2 ≥ 4 or x - 2 ≤ -4
x ≥ 6 or x ≤ -2
Answer: A and C

-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P
