The solution of the equation is x= 3 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
-3x-4y = -17 and
-x-3y = -9
The system of equation can be rewritten as
3x+4y = 17 ------eq 1 and
x+3y = 9 ------ eq 2
To solve for x and y
Multiplying eq 2 by 3 we get,
3x + 9y = 27
or, 3x = 27-9y
Putting this value of x into eq 1 we get,
27-9y +4y = 17
or, -5y = 17-27
or, -5y = -10
or, y = 2
Now put y=2 in eq 2 we get,
x = 9 - 3(2)
= 3
Hence the solution is x = 3 and y = 2
The answer is B. (2x + 5)(x + 1)You could answer this by expanding each answer until you found one that matched 2x^2 + 7x + 5, but I will only show how the answer expands:
2x × x = 2x^2
5 × x = 5x
2x × 1 = 2x
5 × 1 = 5
So in total those brackets expand to 2x^2 + 7x + 5. I hope this helps!
