To do this problem you would first need to factor out a variable, which in this case I would want to do the first equation because it is isolated. Now the equations would look like this:
x = -2y - 1
4x - 4y = 20
Since we know that x is now equal to -2y - 1 we can plug it in to the x value in the second equation:
4 (-2y -1) - 4y = 20
-8y -4 - 4y
-12y - 4 = 20
-12y = 24
y = -2
Now that we know the y value plug the y value to one equation to find the x, I will be using the first equation
x + 2(-2) = -1
x - 4 = -1
x = 3
Solutions:
y = -2
x = 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use FOIL method
F -> First
O Outside
I inside
L Last
(a - b)(a + 2b)= a*a + a *2b + (-b)*a + (-b)*2b
= a² + <u>2ab - ab</u> - 2b²
Combine like terms
= a² + ab - 2b²
