Answer:
8x +3
Step-by-step explanation:
Just collect the like terms, like terms have the same variable. So in this case, 2x, 3x, 3x all share the variable x, so we can add it together.
So when simplified:
2x +3x + 3x+ 3 = 8x +3
Hope this helped,

If we are eliminating x, we would multiply the 2nd equation by -5
5x + 18y = 23
x + 3y = 2....multiply by -5
-----------------
5x + 18y = 23
-5x - 15y = - 10 (result of multiplying by -5)
----------------add
0 + 3y = 13.....bye-bye x :)
Answer:
x = 5, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = 3x^2 - 12x - 15 or
3x^2 - 12x - 15 = 0
By solving for x, use the Quadratic Formula.
… x = 5 and/or -1
Answer:
a₆ = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₂ = 5 and a₁₀ = 19 , then
a₁ + d = 5 → (1)
a₁ + 9d = 19 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁
8d = 14 ( divide both sides by 8 )
d = 1.75
Substitute d = 1.75 into (1)
a₁ + 1.75 = 5 ( subtract 1.75 from both sides )
a₁ = 3.25
Then
a₆ = 3.25 + 5(1.75) = 3.25 + 8.75 = 12
