Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Without a second equation relating x and y, we can solve 3x - 1/2y = 2 ONLY for x in terms of y or for y in terms of x:
x in terms of y: Multiply all three terms of 3x - 1/2y = 2 by 2, to eliminate the fraction: 6x - y = 4. Now add y to both sides to isolate 6x: 6x = 4 + y.
Last, divide both sides by 6 to isolate x:
x = (4 + y)/6
y in terms of x:
y = 6x - 4
If you want a numerical solution, please provide another equation in x and y and solve the resulting system.
Answer is C. 
First start by subtracting the exponents from top to bottom
let's start with a so a^2 - a^-2 2 - (-2) = 4
Now B: b^-3 - b^2 so -3 - 2 = -5
This leaves you with a^4 b^-5
However you cannot have a negative exponent so B must cross over and move to the bottom to become positive
Don't forget about the squared outside the parentheses. Both exponents must be multiplied by two to get 8 and 10
OK. Here we go:
What is the square root of 9 ?
You would say that 3 is, and you're correct.
But that's NOT the <em>only one</em> there is !
What about -3 ?
What do you get when you multiply (-3) times (-3) ?
(Remember that when the signs of both numbers are <em>the same</em>,
the answer is positive.)
(-3) times (-3) = 9
So -3 is <em>also</em> the square root of 9 .
That's right . . . every number has <em>two</em> square roots. They're both the
same number, but one is positive, and one is negative. When you
multiply <em>either one</em> of them by itself, you get the original number.
Another way to say the same thing is:
Every number has one positive square root and one negative square root,
and except for the signs, they're both the same number.
Answer:
108º
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the sum of interior angles: ( n − 2 ) × 180 = x
x = 540º
n = # of interior angles
first, solve for n
(n - 2) • 180 = 540 distribute to 180 to (n - 2)
180n - 360 = 540 add 360 to both sides
180n = 900 divide both sides by 180
n = 5
to find measure of each angle:
540 ÷ 5 = 108º
Answer:
The minivan travels more miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the unit rate, take the miles and divide by the gallons
Truck:
120 miles / 8 gallons =15 miles per gallon
Minivan:
180 miles /10 gallons = 18 miles per gallon
The minivan travels more miles per gallon
