You cannot factor out a coefficient in this expression, because 9 and 8 do not have a common factor besides 1.

- a + 3d - (a - d) = 13 - 3
- 2d = 10
- d = 5
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
18/n = 21/28 You can cancel, but calculators make that unnecessary. Cross multiply
21n = 18 * 28
21n = 504 Divide by 21
n = 504 / 21
n = 24
==================
12/16 = n / 64 Cross Multiply
16n = 12 * 64
16n = 768 Divide by 16
n = 768/16
n = 48
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x + 14
2x - 3y = -14
So, what is the substitution? Y of course, this is because y is equal to 3x + 14.
2x - 3 (3x + 14) = -14
Multiply 3 with the numbers in the parentheses.
2x - 9x + 42 = -14
So you maybe be wondering why it is a negative 7 instead of subtracting 9 with 2. Using PEMDAS, we always read from left to right. So it is basically 2 -9 and you get -7.
-7x + 42 = -14
Then subtract 42 from both sides.
-7x + 42 - 42 = -14 - 42
Simplify
-7x = -56
Divide 7 by both sides.
-7x / 7 = -56 / 7
x = -8
And you might ask, why we get x instead afterwards. This is because both -7 and 7 cancel each other out leaving us with x.
