Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3
now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4
(-4,3)
Answer:
Your answer for the first one is B
Step-by-step explanation:
In the expression 4 to the power of 9, the number 9 is called the D. exponent.
Number four here is the base, and the exponent is always shown as a superscript to the right of the base. It shows how many times you are supposed to multiply the base by itself.
F(x) = 112 - kx
f(-3) = 121
f(-3) = 112 - k(-3)
f(-3) = 112 + 3k
121 = 112 + 3k
121 - 112 = 3k
9 = 3k
9/3 = k
3 = k <===
