Answer:

He made a mistake in his calculations when simplifying 5x - 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The coordinate pair

(x,y) = (2,-2)

The equations

7x + 9y = ?

5x - 2y = ?

Dimitri's Solution

Equation\ 1: 7x + 9y = -4.

7(2) + 9 (-2) = -4.

14 + (-18) = -4.

-4 = -4.

Equation\ 2: 5x -2y = 6.

5(2) - 2 (-2) = 6.

10 - 4 = 6.

6 = 6.

Required

Identify Dimitri’s mistake

In the first equation, Dimitri made no mistake.

However, he made a mistake when simplifying the second equation.

We have:

5x - 2y

and

(x,y) = (2,-2)

Substitute x = 2 and y = -2

So, we have:

5(2) -2(-2)

Open bracket

10 +4

Finally, we have:

14

Tyler buys 3 cans that each contain 3 quarts of blue paint, and he buys 1 can that contains 2 quarts of white paint. What is the
Serga [27]
Tyler has 3 cans of blue paint. Each contains 3 quarts separately. What you need to do is multiply 3 and 3, which would total to 9 quarts. Since you need to include exponents, I´m guessing 3 cubed (3 to the third power) will work. He also buys 1 can of white paint, which only contains 2 quarts. You should add that to the 9 quarts we got from the last steps. I am not sure if this answer is entirely correct, but my guess is 3^3 + 2 = 11 quarts.
