Combine like terms:
-12 + 5a - a - 6a + 8a + 8 + 3a

5a - a = 4a
4a - 6a = -2a
-2a + 8a = 6a
6a + 3a = 9a
-12 + 8 = -4
Answer

Answer:
a. More than one pie
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 + 3/4
8/12 + 9/12 = 17/12
17/12 = 1 5/12

1st question
make line plot similar to the second. above 1/6 put 6 x's; above 1/3 put 3 x's; above 1/2 put 6 x's.
average: 1/3
Answer: You can multiply the top equation by -1 to eliminate the x variable.
And the solution is (2,4/3) in case you need it.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3y = 8
2x + 6y = 12
If you multiply the upper equation or down equation by one, you will be able to eliminate the x variable.
-1( 2x + 3y) = -1(8) New equation: -2x -3y = -8.
Add the new equation you got by multiplying the top equation by -1 to the bottom equation.
Add them: -2x -3y = -8
2x + 6y = 12
3y = 4
y = 4/3
You can now input the value for y into the one of the equations and solve for x.
-2x - 3(4/3) = -8
-2x -4 = -8
+4 +4
-2x = -4
x = 2
