Division and multiplication
If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).
In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)
2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)
a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)
4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1
a = 6 + -2 = 4.
So a=4 and b=-1.
Answer:
Your answer will be
y=2x-15.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, there you must know the slope-intercept form which is
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept
You can also use
the slope formula which is

in this case
it will look like this
=
=-2
So the slope is -2
Now we will find the y-intercept
-7.5=2(4)+b
-7.5=8+b Subtract 8 both sides
-15.5=b
Your y-intercept is -15.5
Hope this helps
<span>Part A: Area = length * width = (6x^2 + 3x - 2) * (x^3 - 2x + 5)
Multiply it out and simplify.
part B: </span><span>Take the first term 6x^2 and multiply each of the term x^3, -2x & 5. Then take 3x and multiply each of the term x^3, -2x & 5. Do the same with -2.
Then add like terms and simplify.</span>
