One of the characteristics of legal English is archaic English words.
Usually, in legal texts you would use words that aren't normally used in everyday speech, in order to show the importance and formality of that document.
Answer:
<u>The solution of this system of equation is ( 3, - 8)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's solve the system of equations:
First equation:
x + 2y = - 13
x = - 13 - 2y
Second equation:
12x + 5y = -4
12 * (- 13 - 2y) + 5y = - 4 (Replacing x with - 13 - 2y)
-156 -24y + 5y = - 4
-24y + 5y = - 4 + 156 (Like terms)
-19y = 152
y = - 152/19
<u>y = -8</u> (Dividing by 19)
Solving x
x + 2y = -13
x + 2 (- 8 ) = - 13
x - 16 = - 13
x = - 13 + 16
<u>x = 3</u>
2. Proving that x = 3 and y = - 8 are correct:
12x + 5y = -4
12 * 3 + 5 * -8 = -4
36 - 40 = - 4
- 4 = - 4
<u>We proved that x = 3 and y = - 8 are correct</u>
Answer: (0,3) and (-9,0)
————————
-2(0) + 6y = 18
6y = 18
y = 3 so…(0,3)
————————
-2x + 6(0) = 18
-2x = 18
x = -9 so.. (-9,0)
Answer: 45 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the point of the entire team be represented by x.
Alfonso scored 18 points during his last basketball game, which was 40% of the points the entire team scored. This can then be represented in an equation as:
40% of x = 18
40% × x = 18
40/100 × x = 18
0.4 × x = 18
0.4x = 18
x = 18/0.4
x = 45
The team's total point is 45
