It depends on what variable you are tying to solve for first. Say you are trying to solve for x first and then y on the first problem you wrote.
In substitution you solve one of the equations for example with
6x+2y=-10
2x+2y=-10
you solve 2x+2y=-10 for x
2x+2y=-10
-2y = -2y (what you do to one side of the = you do to the other)
2x=-10-2y (to get the variable by its self you divide the # and the variable)
/2=/2 (-10/2=-5 and -2y/2= -y or -1y, they are the same either way)
x=-5-y
now you put that in your original equation that you didn't solve for:
6(-5-y)+2y=-10 solve for that
-30-6y+2y=-10 combine like terms
-30-4y=-10 get the y alone and to do this you first get the -30 away from it
+30=+30
-4y=20 divide the -4 from each side
/-4=/-4 (20/-4=-5)
y=-5
now the equation you previously solved for x can be solved for y.
x=-5-y
x=-5-(-5) a minus parenthesis negative -(- gives you a positive
-5+5=0
x=0
and now we have solved the problem. x=0 and y=-5
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
You have asked for the simpilfied form of ...

That would be ...

We suspect that's not what you meant. Parentheses are required for grouping when you write math expressions in text form. They work best using math symbols instead of words. We think you mean
... ((x -2)/(x^2 +x -6))/((x^2 +5x +4)/(x +4))

<em>Comment on simplifying rational expressions</em>
Division of fractions works the same whether you're working with numbers or polynomials (or anything else). Dividing by something is the same as multiplying by its inverse (reciprocal).
(a/b)/(c/d) = (a/b)·(d/c)
I learned this as "invert and multiply". I've recently seen it referred to as "copy dot flip", meaning you copy the numerator, use a dot symbol to indicate multipication, then flip the denominator (make its reciprocal) to become what you're multiplying by.
Answer:
(86.2,0) is the x-intercept.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the slope formula to figure this one out:
Just use two of the points on the table, any of them will work:


Now you have the slope of the equation, now using the y-intercept equation you can substitute the variables for point of the table and the new slope.:

Now just solve for b to get the y intercept:

Now you have the y-intercept so you just have to plug in 0 to the y spot and it will calculate the x-intercept.

And that's the x-intercept.
PART A:
The table of h(t) and g(t) for the value of x between 4 and 7 inclusive are shown below.
The solution for h(x)=g(x) lies between x = 4 and x = 5, this is becuase the range of value given by h(4) and h(5) and g(4) and g(5).
The graph is shown in picture 2 to confirm this. The two functions intersect each other between x = 4 and x = 5
PART B:
The point of intersection is the point where the cannon balls will collide.
