Answer:
distribute -5 and -4
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(-6x-9y)-4(-10x+7y)
(30x + 45y) - (- 40x + 28)
30x + 45y + 40x - 28
45y + 70x - 28
B. For the easiest way to find this, solve the first equation for y and then plug into the second equation for y.
Answer:
X= 9/2
Alternative form
x=4 1/2, x=4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
*= Multiply
1. log (little 10 under) (2)*(3x-1)= log (little 10 under) (2)*(x+8)
2. then divide both side by log (little 10 under (2))
3. 3x-1=x+8
4. move variable to the left side and change its sign
5. 3x-x-1=8
6. then move constant to the right side and change its sign
7. 3x-x=8+1
8. collect like terms
9. 2x=8+1
10. add 8+1
11. 2x=9
12. then divide both sides by 2
13. 2/2 9/2
14. 2/2 cancels out so x=9/2 is the answer
