Hi thank u vvv much i am currently failing my bio class and in need of help
Step 1. You must write down/ underline all the numbers given in the problem.
Step2. Identify all the unknown variable such as x, y, a, b [those are the most common ones].
Step 3 Identify what sign of operation your working with... It can be +,-,×,÷.
Step 3 write down all your terms on the LHS of the equation.
Step 4. Equate all the constant on the RHS of the equation. If the constant was negative It would be positive and vic versa
Step. Solve your problem
Cross multiply...
Thus,
x(x+4)=(x+12)(x+8)
expand...
x^2+4x=x^2+8x+12x+96
Simply both sides of the equation.
x^2+4x=x^2+20x+96
simply further by adding ask like terms...
-16x=96
Solve for x by making x the subject.
therefore
x=-6.
Considering the given system of equations, it is found that:

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the system is:
-8x+y=-6
3x-2y=-1
In matrix form, it is given by:
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}-8&1\\3&-2\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}-6\\-1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-8%261%5C%5C3%26-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D-6%5C%5C-1%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
To find the matrix |Ay|, we replace the y coefficients of 1 and -2 by the results of -6 and -1, hence:
