8a - 4 = 25 + 6 (a - 8)
(distribute the 6)
8a - 4 = 25 + 6a - 48
(combine like terms 25 - 48)
8a - 4 = 6a - 23
( subtract 6a from both sides)
2a - 4 = -23
(add 4 to both sides)
2a = -19
(divide both sides by 2)
a = - 9.5
////CHECK/////
8 (-9.5) - 4 = 25 + 6 ( -9.5 -8)
(plug each side into a calculator)
-80 = -80
FINAL ANSWER:
a = -9.5
Answer:
Infinite solution
Step-by-step explanation:
There is 3 possible solutions to a system of linear equations:
- One solution - two distinct lines that do not share y-intercept or slop intersect at a point
- No solution - two distinct lines that share the same slope but not the same y-intercept never intersect and are parallel
- Infinite solution - one distinct function represented two ways which in simplest form share the same slope and y-intercept
The first equation is in simplest form y=2x+3.
The second equation 2y=4x+6 when simplified becomes y=2x+3.
These are the same lines with the same slope and y-intercept. Therefore, they have infinite solutions.
Answer:
41 139/1000
Step-by-step explanation:
41.139
41 139/1000
Step-by-step explanation:
By Law of Indices,
8^(-2) = 8^0 / 8^2
= 1 / 64.
-x + 4 + 20x = 156
19x + 4 = 156
- 4. -4
19x = 152
19. 19
X = 8
