Answer:

1)   Adding

2)  x = 1.5   y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Which would be a more helpful for solving the system: adding the two equations or subtracting one from the other?

Adding.

Would eliminate the y variable

2.solve the system without graphing, show your reasoning

After adding the equations

8x = 12

Divide both sides by 12

x = 1.5

Substitute into the first equation

2(1.5) + (1/2)y = 7

3 + (1/2)y = 7

(1/2)y = 4

y = 8

Is (4, -2) the solution of the system of equations shown
Advocard [28]

No, because if you substitute (4, -2) into x and y in each equation, they are not the same as the value on the right side of the equation.

2(4) + 4(-2) = - 2

8 + -8 = -2

0 = -2 <---- this is not correct.

-4(4) + -2 = -14

-16 + -2 = -14

-18 = -14 <----- this is not correct.

What is the product of (-a+3)(a+4)?<br><br> a^2-a+12<br> a^2-a-12<br> -a^2-a-12<br> -a^2-a+12
Damm [24]

Answer:

-a^2 + -a + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the following:

(3 - a) (a + 4)

(3 - a) (a + 4) = (3) (a) + (3) (4) + (-a) (a) + (-a) (4):

-a a + 3 a - 4 a + 3 4

3×4 = 12:

-a a + 3 a - 4 a + 12

-a a = -a^2:

-a^2 + 3 a - 4 a + 12

Grouping like terms, -a^2 + 3 a + 4 (-1) a + 12 = -a^2 + (3 a - 4 a) + 12:

-a^2 + (3 a - 4 a) + 12

3 a - 4 a = -a:

Answer: -a^2 + -a + 12
