-2(y = x - 2) -----> -2y = -2x + 4
y = 2x + 4 --------> + y = 2x + 4
-1y = 8
/ -1 /-1
y = -8
y = x -2
-8 = x -2
+ 2 +2
-6 = x
The answer is ( -6, -8)
Answer:
4x - 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms (those with the same amount of variables:
x + x + x + x = 4x
4x - 20 => Note: You cannot combine these two terms, because they do not have the same amount of variables (one having one variable (x), the other being a constant (no variable) ).

Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
a^2 + 9^2 = 15^2
a^2 +81 =225
Subtract 81 from each side
a^2 = 225-81
a^2 = 144
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(144)
a=12
D because -24+24 would equal a perfect 0
