↓
y = 2x - 3
3y - x = 6
3(2x - 3) - x = 6
3(2x) - 3(3) - x = 6
6x - 9 - x = 6
6x - x - 9 = 6
5x - 9 = 6
<u> + 9 + 9</u>
<u>5x</u> = <u>15</u>

x = 3
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(3) - 3
y = 6 - 3
y = 3
(x, y) = (3, 3)
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find value of x using similarity ratio
(3x-5)/32 = (5x-5)/56 cross multiply expressions
56×(3x-5) = 32×(5x-5)
21x - 20x = 35 - 20
x = 15

Answer: Choice C</h3>
{x | x < -12 or x > -6}
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's solve the first inequality for x.
(-2/3)x > 8
-2x > 8*3
-2x > 24
x < 24/(-2)
x < -12
The inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative value.
Let's do the same for the second inequality.
(-2/3)x < 4
-2x < 4*3
-2x < 12
x > 12/(-2)
x > -6
The conclusion of each section is that x < -12 or x > -6 which points us to <u>choice C</u> as the final answer.
Side note: The intervals x < -12 and x > -6 do not overlap in any way. There's a gap between the two pieces. We consider these intervals to be disjoint. The number line graph is below.
