Hi there!
x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y
-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4
x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21
So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.
Hope this helps!
I'm kinda confused by this question, but, If $60 is the original price, and you want to know what 15% of the original price ($60) is.. It would be $9, the "amount discount".
If this isn't the answer you wanted please tell me and explain the question a bit more to me if you can and I will try my best to help.
Thank you.
The original expression is equal to 0 because anything multiplied by 0 is equal to 0. Solve inside the brackets for the possible answer choices to find what will equal 0.
Start with the first expression. Add 4 and negative 4 will become 0, and -1 times 0 is equal to 0. Let's solve for the others just to be sure.
In the second expression, solving inside the brackets gives you 8. -1 times 8 is equal to -8.
Adding 4 and negative 4 in the third expression leaves you with 0. But, 1 + 0 is equal to 1.
Adding negative 4 and negative 4 gives you the answer of -8, and -1 times -8 is equal to 8.
Your answer is the first expression, or A.
