Phillip spent $8.14 in total. Here is how:
2.5 lbs (Monday) + 1.2 lbs (Tuesday) = 3.7 lbs
3.7 lbs • $2.20/per lbs = $8.14
A represents 12!
12! = 12 * 11 * 10 * 9 * ... (down to 1)
For this case, what we are going to do is use the following property:
Multiply an equation by a scalar.
In this case, the scalar will be:
k = -2
We have then that equation 2 will be:
k * (4x + y) = k * 1
-2 * (4x + y) = - 2 * 1
-8x-2y = -2
Answer:
The property that justifies this manipulation is:
Multiply an equation by a scalar.
