Answer: -4
Step-by-step explanation: I am guessing you meant ...99 + 2(8*3)...
3x + 99 + 2(8 x 3) = 135
3x + 99 + 2(24) = 135
3x + 99 +48 = 135
3x + 147 = 135
(3x + 147) - 147 = (135) - 147
3x = -12
(3x) ÷ 3 = (-12) ÷ 3
x = -4
Ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
I = sqrt(-1)
i^2 = -1
(-i)^2 = (-i)(-i) = i^2 = -1
(-i)^3 = (-i)(-i)(-i) = (-i)(i^2) = i
use these facts to find which equation is correct if x = -i
i bet on 2,3 or 4
Subsitution
solve for y in first equation
add 2x to both sides
y=2x+8
sub 2x+8 for y in second equation
16+4x=2(2x+8)
divide both sides by 2
8+2x=2x+8
true
there are infinite solutions for x
therefor infinite soltions for y
there are an infinite number of solutions
