Answer:

a is positive and b is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

ok, since |a-b| is the absolute value of a-b, so whatever a-b is gonna be it must end up positive

a + b can't both be positive because then a+b not equal to a-b

a cant be negative ever because that would conflict with the absolute value part of the right side of the equation

thus a must be positive and b must be negative

A system of equations is shown below.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-6,8)...x = -6 and y = 8

lets start subbing

5x + 3y = -6

5(-6) + 3(8) = -6

-30 + 24 = -6

-6 = -6

so (-6,8) IS a solution to this equation

2x + y = -4

2(-6) + 8 = -4

-12 + 8 = -4

-4 = -4

so (-6,8) IS a solution to this equation

A. It is the only solution to the system

Which is the rationalized form of the expression sqrtx/sqrtx+sqrt7
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

(x - √7*√x) / (x - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose your expression is √x / (√x + √7)

(√x * (√x - √7)) / ((√x + √7) * √x - √7)) = (√x * √x - √7 * √x) / (x - 7)

= (x - √7*√x) / (x - 7)
