If you use the first answer, the equation becomes 2x + 2y = 16. You could subtract this from equation Q to eliminate x.
The second answer makes equation P -2x - 2y = -16. You could add this to equation Q to eliminate x. You can use both of these methods to eliminate the x term, but if you can only choose one, you should choose the second option.
Answer:
Bicycles = 315
Scooters = 630, basic mathematics. The most effective method for these questions is substitution. But I might have intermingled them so double check
1. BC/CD = AC/CE 1. Given

Answer:
x = ± 2
Step-by-step explanation:
given
40 - x² = 0 ( add x² to both sides )
40 = x² or
x² = 40 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± 
= ± 
= ± 2
Answer:
x = 3 or x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value of 3x = 9
Divide nine by 3 to get 3
Absolute value represents the number of spaces an integer is from 0, so the answer could also be -3, as the absolute value of 3 x -3 (-9) is 9.
