Answer:
The first question:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
-x - 1 = -1 • (x + 1)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
2.1 Solve : -x-1 = 0
Add 1 to both sides of the equation :
-x = 1
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : x = -1
One solution was found :
x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:
- 2x-2y=-6
3x+4y=8
multiply equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 2
- 6x-6y=18
6x+8y=16
Add
2y=34
y= 34÷2
y=17
substitute 17 for y in equation (2)
3x+4y=8
3x+4(17)=8
3x+68=8
3x=8-68
3x=-60
x=-60÷3
x=-20
x=-20,y=17
Answer:
After simplifying, the exponent of x is 33 and the exponent of y is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
For us to simplify, we bring the x base together and the y base together
Recall from the law of indices;
x^a/x^b = x^(a-b)
and x^a * x^b = x^(a + b)
We shall be applying these here
Let us bring the x terms together
we have these as;
x^8/x^14 * 1/x^-39 = x^( 8 - 14 -(-39))
= x^(8 + 39-14) = x^33
for y, we have it that;
y^-26/y^-5 * 1/y^-21
= y^(-26 -(-5) - (-21)
= y^-26 + 5 + 21 = y^0
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
There is different ways to solve methods of elimination but if you wanted to cancel y out you would multiply by the opposite sign....for example
7x + 5y = 19
-5 (2x + y = 19) ---> -10x -5y = 95
this would cancel out your y to solve for x so you can plug it back in and solve! hope this helps!!!
