Answer:
Let us consider the expression:
(1)
Now, the quotient of power rules says that the numbers that have same base can be find by subtracting if powers are with same sign
And adding if powers are with opposite sign.
We will solve equation (1) by this quotient of power rule.
So, it can be rewritten as:
.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Making denominator same in first bracket we get
Dividing 6 by 3 we get 2
using distributive law
Hence this is our answer
3x + 4y = 31
2x - 4y = -6
*The +4 and -4 in the center of the equation cancel out because 4-4 = 0*
3x = 31
2x = -6
------------
*add like terms*
3x + 2x = 5x
31 - 6 = 25
So now you should have this written on your paper ... > 5x = 25
*Divide by 5 on each side*
5x = 25

5 5
x = 5
1) Create was we already know in the equation. 16=-7(-3)+b. (This is using the initial equation of y=mx+b.)
2) Simplify and solve for b: 16=21+b = -5=b
3) Replug your be value into your equation: y=-7x-5.
Answer
y=-7x-5
Words: y equals negative seven x, minus five.
1) subtract 42.5 miles from 68 miles to find the gross change in distance: It is 25.5. Since this is a decrease, write -25.5 miles.
2) divide -25.5 miles by the original distance, 68 miles:
-0.375
3) multiply this by 100% to find the percentage decrease:
-37.5% (answer)
