Answer:
I believe the correct answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(-3, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute for y:
x+6 = -2x -3
3x = -9 . . . . . . . add 2x -6 to both sides
x = -3 . . . . . . . . divide by 3
y = (-3) +6 = 3 . . substitute for x in the first equation
The solution is ...
(x, y) = (-3, 3)
Answer:
x : y = 9 : 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
3x - y : x + 2y = 2 : 5
Express the ratio in fractional form, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
5(3x - y) = 2(x + 2y) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )
15x - 5y = 2x + 4y ( subtract 2x from both sides )
13x - 5y = 4y ( add 5y to both sides )
13x = 9y ( divide both sides by 13 )
x =
y ( divide both sides by y )
=
, that is
x : y = 9 : 13
