Simplify 5a – (2a + 6)

Mathematics
2 answers:
Temka [501]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Add '-2a' to each side of the equation.

5a + -2a = -6 + 2a + -2a

Combine like terms: 5a + -2a = 3a

3a = -6 + 2a + -2a

Combine like terms: 2a + -2a = 0

3a = -6 + 0

3a = -6

Divide each side by '3'.

a = -2

Simplifying

a = -2

Answer:

<u>Options 1 and 3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We should know that, the system of linear equations can be treated as matrices, i.e: we can modify or make any operations provide that we must apply the same operation for all terms of each equation.

Given:  the solution for the following system is (2,9)

Px + Qy = R  ⇒(1)

Tx + Uy = V  ⇒(2)

We will check which system of equation has the same solution.

<u>System A)</u>  Px + Qy = R

                  (P+T)x + (Q+U)y = R+V  ⇒(3)

So, By summing (1) and (2) we will get the equation (3)

So, system A has the same solution (2,9)

<u>System B)</u> Px + Qy = R

                 (P+2T)x + (Q+2U)y = R-2V  ⇒(4)

By multiplying equation (2) by 2 and add with equation (1), we will get:

 (P+2T)x + (Q+2U)y = R+2V

Which is not the same as equation (4)

So, system B has not the same solution (2,9)

<u>System C)</u> (T-P)x + (U-Q)y = V-R  ⇒(5)

                  Tx + Uy = V  

By multiplying equation (1) by -1 and add with equation (2), we will get the equation (5)

So, system C has the same solution of (2,9)

<u>System D)</u> (T-P)x + (Q+U)y = V-R  ⇒(6)

                  Tx + Uy = V  

We cannot get equation (6) by the same operation over equation (1)

Note the coefficient of x and y⇒ (T-P) and (Q+U)

They must be (T+P) and (Q+U) <u>OR </u>(T-P) and (Q-U)

So, system D has not the same solution of (2,9)

<u>System E)</u> (5T-P)x + (5U-Q)y = V-5R ⇒ (6)

                  Tx + Uy = V  

By subtract equation (1) from 5 times equation (2), we will get:

(5T-P)x + (5U-Q)y = 5V-R

Which is not the same as equation (6)

So, system E has not the same solution (2,9)

As a conclusion, the systems which have the same solution are:

<u>Options 1 and 3</u>

Answer: $156.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would have to find out how much she earns per hour, so $26÷4. Then you multiply that by 25.

(26÷4) x 25=$156.25.

Josiah, the manager of a pet store, bought 72 oz of water conditioner to use in his fish tanks. His small tanks would require 2
kodGreya [7K]
If we are going to analyze the problem very well, the equation that we will be able to make would be: 2x + 6y = 72

72 is the oz of water conditioner to use in his fish tanks.

small tanks would require 2 oz of conditioner

 large tanks would require 6 oz of conditioner

There is only one point which satisfy's the above equation.That is the points of (0, 12) and (36, 0)
