My answer is -(x46)
I hope this helps
They want you to combine the variables. So
−12x4 + 7x3 + 6x4 − 2x3 =
5x3 − 6x4
So you combine the coefficients, not the variable number, for instance -12+6=-6, and then you simply put the variable in the same place it was. You don't do anything else with it except what I just showed you
hope it helps
Okay, so
a=2b+11
<span>a+b = 2(a-b) </span>
<span>now solve </span>
<span>a+b = 2a-2b </span>
<span>3b = a, put that into the 1st equation: </span>
<span>3b = 2b+11 </span>
<span>b=11 </span>
<span>a = 2(11) +11 = 33 </span>
<span>check in the 2nd equation: </span>
<span>33+11 = 2(33-11) </span>
<span>44 = 2(22) </span>
<span>44 = 44</span>
It’s 2/3 I think I’m right
