It depends on what variable you are tying to solve for first. Say you are trying to solve for x first and then y on the first problem you wrote.
In substitution you solve one of the equations for example with
6x+2y=-10
2x+2y=-10
you solve 2x+2y=-10 for x
2x+2y=-10
-2y = -2y (what you do to one side of the = you do to the other)
2x=-10-2y (to get the variable by its self you divide the # and the variable)
/2=/2 (-10/2=-5 and -2y/2= -y or -1y, they are the same either way)
x=-5-y
now you put that in your original equation that you didn't solve for:
6(-5-y)+2y=-10 solve for that
-30-6y+2y=-10 combine like terms
-30-4y=-10 get the y alone and to do this you first get the -30 away from it
+30=+30
-4y=20 divide the -4 from each side
/-4=/-4 (20/-4=-5)
y=-5
now the equation you previously solved for x can be solved for y.
x=-5-y
x=-5-(-5) a minus parenthesis negative -(- gives you a positive
-5+5=0
x=0
and now we have solved the problem. x=0 and y=-5
Answer:
60 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Saturday = 16 minutes
Sunday = 28 minutes + 16 minutes = 44 minutes
Saturday + Sunday = 44 + 16 = 60 minutes
2 * 7 = 14 (the number of tiles for each row) 23 - 14 = 9 (the number of tiles subtracted from how many tiles that are taken away) 9 tiles are in the seventh row.
To write in slope intercept form solve the equation for y:
4x + 3y =15
Subtract 4x from both sides:
3y = -4x +15
Now get Y by itself by divide all terms by 3:
y = -4/3x + 5
Books are rectangles so that means that opposite sides are equal so if one side is 10 inches then so is the opposite side. same for the 8. the perimeter is the amount around the rectangle so you must add all sides together to find it so
10in+10in+8in+8in= 36in
