I think 7a^3b^6, but im not sure so im sorry if it is wrong
Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
n represents our number. So, twice a number would be 2n because twice means multiply by two.
When the problem says 6 less, then it means 6 less than 2n. So, it would look like 2n-6.
FInally, the problem says that all of this equals 17 so 17 would be the result.
So, you answer is 2n-6 = 17. This is answer choice B.
Let's plug in (18,10) into each answer choice until we find the one that has it as a solution.
A) 2x - y = 26
2(18) - 10 = 26
36 - 10 = 26
26 = 26
Your answer is A.
I'll just do the rest to show that you the they are incorrect.
B) x + y = 18
18 + 10 = 18
28 ≠ 18
C) 2x - 2y = 36
2(18) - 2(10) = 36
36 - 20 = 36
16 ≠ 36
D) x - y = -28
18 - 10 = -28
8 ≠ -28
Your answer is A) 2x - y = 26.
We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19
