Hey Brion,
1) <span>Evaluate 2A - 3B for A = 7 and B = -2.
To solve this start by filling in the variables.
2(7) - 3(-2)
Now multiply, remember that a positive times a negative is a negative.
14 - (-6)
Finally, subtract. Remember, Keep, Change, Change (KCC). Keep the first number, change symbol (for subtraction use addition), and change the negative number to a positive number.
14 + 6 = 20
</span><span>2) If x = -3, then x 2-7x + 10 equals
Start by filling in the variables.
-3(2) - 7(-3) + 10
Now follow PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction) to solve. Remember K.C.C (no. 1 above)
</span>-3(2) - 7(-3) + 10
<span>(-6) - (-21) + 10
(-6) + (21) + 10
15 + 10

You’d just take the 6 percent and make it 0.06 then multiply it by 95,292
67, 66, 67, and 45, respectively.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 - 2 + 10 o lw. First find a common denominator. 3 * 5. After cross reducing, multiply across ... Divide the fraction to get a decimal answer. 21 into a an. Jinit. 5 = 1.25 ... 3 = -x +8. -8 = -8. = -5 = -X. =-1(-5) = -x (-1). = 5 = x. Set up a ratio, and cross ... Combine like terms, and solve for x. Divide both sides by 2. = x= 20. = 5-1">4.
Call the two equations above A and B, in order to not confuse them.
A: -2x + 6y = -38
B: 3x - 4y = 32
For this system we have opposites in x and y, so Elimination (or Linear Combination) works best. Either variable works, so let's work with x first and multiply A by 3 and B by 2. This is done so we get opposites in A and B then when added together give zero.
-2x + 6y = -38 ------> multiply by 3 ----> -6x + 18y = -114
3x - 4y = 32 ------> multiply by 2 -----> 6x - 8y = 64
Now we add the new equations. The -6x and 6x are opposites and go away. We are left with
10y = -50. We divide both sides by 10 and get that y = -5.
Now we take y = -5 and put it into an original equation. Let's use A.
-2x + 6y = -38 the original equation A
-2x + 6(-5) = -38 we found y = -5
-2x + (-30) = -38 evaluating and multiplying
-2x - 30 = -38 apply the parentheses
-2x = -8 add 30 to both sides
x = 4 divide on both sides by -2
Thus x = 4 and y = -5, or (4, -5) is the solution.
