-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P

Answer:
I think 1 is negative, 2 undefined, 3 negative, 4 positive
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 70°
Supplementary angles always = 180°
Where 180 - 110 = 70
110+ 70 = 180
Answer:
negative association
Step-by-step explanation:
This diagram is a scatter plot which represents a set of data. Data on a scatter plot can fit one of three descriptions: positive (increasing), negative (decreasing) or no association (points do not form any kind of line). Given this data and the line of best fit, or the line that pass through the majority of the points, it is a decreasing line. Since the line goes downhill, it is a negative association.
Answer:
B. 3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
I have no idea if this is right but my logic is 3.6 - 3.6 = 0
