Algebra always makes things sound harder than they actually are, and weird vocabulary can mix up the steps we knew so well.
Part 1: Multiply the first equation by a 2 so that you can cancel out the y variable.
6x - 2y = 0
5x + 2y = 22
Part 2: Actually cancel out the y variables, and combine like terms.
11x = 22
Part 3: Solve for "x" by dividing both sides by 11
x = 2
Part 4: Substitute the variable "x" with the value we just solved for in the original equation.
3(2) - y = 0
6 - y = 0
Then, solve for y by adding y to both sides
6=y
Solution Set = {2,6}
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the rectangle be x. Then the length would be x+2
Area=(length)*(width)
48=x(x+2), => x=6. Width is 6 and length is 8
Answer:
I believe it would just be 5/6.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a six-sided dice, there are five numbers less than 6!
