Elimination:
3x - 9y = 3
6x - 3y = -24
3x - 9y = 3
18x - 9y = -72
(subtract)
-15x = 75
÷ -15
x = -5
(3 × -5) - 9y = 3
-15 - 9y = 3
+ 15
-9y = 18
÷ -9
y = -2
Substitution:
6x - 3y = -24
+ 3y
6x = -24 + 3y
÷ 6
x = 4 + 0.5y
3(4 + 0.5y) - 9y = 3
12 + 1.5y - 9y = 3
12 - 7.5y = 3
- 12
-7.5y = -9
÷ -7.5
y = 1.2
x = 4 + (0.5 × 1.2)
x = 4 + 0.6
x = 4.6
So this one didn't fail as much, but I got different numbers. If you have to give in values, I'd give in the values from the elimination because I don't trust myself when it comes to the substitution
Answer:
(A)6 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we determine the value of a using Pythagoras Theorem.

Therefore:
Distance along the long route = 8 + 15 =23 km
Distance along the shortcut =17 km
Difference =23-17 =6km
Therefore, Mr. Jones bikes 6km less when he takes the shortcut instead of the long route.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
eight less then the product of a number and 2
" the product " means multiply
the product of a number and 2.......2x
eight less....-8
2x - 8 <=== ur expression
Um can we see the cylinder
Answer:
Potassium Iodide
Step-by-step explanation:
KI (potassium iodide) is a salt of stable (not radioactive) iodine that can help block radioactive iodine from being absorbed by the thyroid gland, thus protecting this gland from radiation injury. The thyroid gland is the part of the body that is most sensitive to radioactive iodine.
