A. Multiplied by 2 for the first then for the second multiply by three.

Explanation: the equations already have opposite signs for y so reversing the signs would be counterproductive. (Eliminates B and D) and the easiest way is to get the numbers before the Y variable to be the same. The top by 2 and bottom by 3 would do that, leaving only A.

What are the solutions of the equation (x-3)2 + 2(x – 3) - 8= 0? Use u substitution to solve.
astraxan [27]

Answer:

x = - 1 and x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0

Let u = x - 3, then

u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u

(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4

u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2

Convert back to x, that is

x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1

x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5
