The answer is the 3 option
Answer: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the Y is 0 for both, you can simply draw a line graph with one point at 15, and the other at -1. The difference between 15 and -1 is 16. Or ABS(15-(-1))=16
Dividing by coefficient other than +1
If both pieces of metal are made of the same material the ratio of the mass and volume will be the same. here the symbol M stands for the mass of the object, and V the volume. Density has the units of mass divided by volume such as grams per centimeters cube (g/cm3) or kilograms per liter (kg/l).
You can do substitution 2x-2=x^2 -x -6; isolate all terms on one side 0= x^2 -x-2x -6+2; combine like terms x^2 -3x -4=0; factor the quadratic (x-4)(x+1)=0; each term is zero x-4=0 so x=4 and x+1=0 so x=-1. Now, y=2•4-2=6 and y=2•(-1) -2= -4 ; solutions for the system are ( 4,6) and ( -1, -4)
