Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
-3x + 2y = 12
x = 2y - 8
You can 'substitute' the expression '2y - 8' for the value of 'x' in the first equation and solve for 'y':
-3(2y - 8) + 2y = 12
Distribute: -6y + 24 + 2y = 12
Combine like terms: -4y + 24 = 12
Subtract 24 from both sides: -4y + 24 - 24 = 12 - 24 or -4y = -12
Divide both sides by -4: -4y/-4 = -12/-4 or y = 3
Use y = 3 to solve for 'x':
x = 2(3) - 8 or 6 - 8
x = -2

Answer:
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -129
Step-by-step explanation:
It usually works well to compute the square first. That is, simplify according to the order of operations.
f(x) = -4(x^2 -12x +36) +15
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -144 +15
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -129
-3 x -26 = 78
meaning the answer is D.
The reason the answer is D, is because two negatives when multiplied or divided become positive. Only when multiplied or divided does this occur.
