-3x+y = -28
-x-6y = -3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eliminate x:
-3x+y=-28
-x-6y=-3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-3x+y=-28
-3(-1)x-3(-6)y=(-3)(-3)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3x-1y=28
3x+18y=9
19y=-19
Therefore:
19y=-19
÷19 ÷19
y=
y=1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3x-1y=28
y=-1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3x-1(-1)=28
3x+1=28
-1 -1
3x=28-1
3x=27
÷3 ÷3
x=
↑ They cancel each other out
x=9
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
x=9
y=-1
Answer is: (9,-1)
I could be wrong but I believe the answer would be A!
The authors use rhetorical devices to increase the credibility of the essay. This is the most correct answer of all those mentioned because it directly corresponds to ethos, the rhetorical appeal to credibility.
I believe the best answer for this question is "entropy." Entropy is a scientific term referring to thermodynamics. It measures both the order and the disorder of a system. Order, or disorder, are both defined by how close the system is to equilibrium. Hope this helps. Also, keep in mind to ask questions in the proper category - this would be most suited to science, rather than English. Thanks.
