The correct answer to the question presented above would be letter A. -976, 563. I got this through solving with the first number of the set, then getting the ratio of the data set (which is -5) and the number of terms in the set. Thus, I arrived with the answer, -976, 563.
Answer:
(x, y ) = (3 , - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
2x - 3y = 18 → (1)
4x + y = 8 → (2)
multiply (2) by 3
12x + 3y = 24 → (3)
add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate the term in y
(2x + 12x) + (- 3y + 3y) = (18 + 24)
14x = 42 ( divide both sides by 14 )
x = 3
substitute x = 3 in (1) or (2) to evaluate for y-coordinate
(2) → 12 + y = 8 ⇒ y = 8 - 12 = - 4
solution is (3, - 4 )
−2 − (−6)
the minus negative becomes +
-2 +6
subtract the smaller from the larger and take the sign of the larger
6-2 =4
the sign of the larger is +
+4
Answer: +4
I think that’s 4 degrees, I might have to check my answer.
