Since the first equation gives you an expression for y, it is convenient to use that in the second equation. Since the second equation has a factor of 3 that can be removed from all terms, it may make the math easier to do that.

Revised 2nd equation:
.. x -y = 1
Substituting for y:
.. x -(2x +4) = 1 . . . . . use the expressiion for y in place of y
.. -x -4 = 1 . . . . . . . . . simplify
.. -4 = 1 +x . . . . . . . . . add x
.. -5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

y = 2x +4
.. = 2(-5) +4
.. = -6

The solution is (x, y) = (-5, -6).

Sav [38]

Answer:

  8r^4

Step-by-step explanation:

√(64r^8) = √((8r^4)^2) = 8r^4

_____

You can make use of either or both of these rules of exponents:

  (a^b)^c = a^(b·c) . . . . . used above

  \sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}}

Using the second rule, you can write the expression as ...

\sqrt{64r^8}=\sqrt{64}\cdot r^{8\cdot\frac{1}{2}}=8r^4

What about this one ?
salantis [7]
The options are given in factored form.

If a function is zero at x=3, this means x=3 is a root of the equation. x = 3 can also be written as x - 3 = 0

So, if x = 3 is a root of the equation, x - 3 will be a factor of the function. From the given options we can see only Option C contains x - 3 as its factor. Substitute x = 3 in option C and the function value will be zero.

So, the correct answer is option C
