Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we can write -9 instead of x and y=1 instead of 1
so we write solution again
-9a+1b=-31
-9a-1b=-41
-18a=-72
a=4
we should write 4 instead of a
-9(4)+1b=-31
-36+b=-31
b=5
a=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(4+1)/(8-2)= 5/6
y + 1 = 5/6(x - 2)
y + 1 = 5/6x - 5/3
y + 3/3 = 5/6x - 5/3
y = 5/6x - 8/3
6(y = 5/6x - 8/3)
6y = 5x - 16
-5x + 6y = -16
Answer:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try!
