Answer:
(6, 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x) 4-(-2) = 6
(y) 5-(-1)= 6
143 / 6x+12 = 132 / 72
143 / 6x+12 = 11 / 6
crossmultiply:
66x + 132 = 858
66x = 726
x = 11
Answer:
b should be the answer i think
Use the substitution method:
2x - 6y = -12
x - 2y = -8
Then x = 2y - 8
Substitute in the first equation:
2(2y - 8) - 6y = -12
4y - 16 - 6y = -12
-2y = 4
y = -2
Now substitute y in one of the two equations given you prefer:
For example x-2*(-2) = -8
x + 4 = -8
x = -12
The solutions are x = -12 and y = -2
