Use elimination
Multiply first equation by 4
12a - 8b = 56
12a + 9b = 39
Subtract both
-17b = 17
b = -1
Plug in -1 for b
3a - 2(-1) = 14
3a = 12, a = 4
Final answer: a = 4, b = -1
Answer:
The answer is 5y + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
=8y - 3y + 12
=5y + 12
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the base area of the cuboid is 7cm² . And it's volume is 21cm³ . We need to find its total surface area . Now here we need to find the height . We can find height as ,
<u>Height</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
Let's find out the Total surface area .
<u>TSA </u><u>of </u><u>cuboid</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
<u>Put </u><u>on</u><u> the</u><u> respective</u><u> values</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

Lennie used associative law of addition.
a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c
