Let the number be a
6a - 20 = 3a + 4
Group like terms
6a - 3a = 20 + 4
3a = 24
divide through by 3
a = 8
Therefore the number is 8

Factorise completely:<br> 1. 3xy - x<br>2. 4a² - 9​
Amanda [17]

Answer:

x(3y - 1) and (2a - 3)(2a + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

3xy - x ← factor out x from each term

= x(3y - 1)

(2)

4a² - 9 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then

4a² - 9

= (2a)² - 3²

= (2a - 3)(2a + 3)

2x+8y = 6<br> 15x + 20y = 15
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The solution is (0, 3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please copy and share the instructions.  Here they are:  Solve the following system of linear equations.

Both of the equations can be reduced (simplified):

2x+8y = 6            =>  x + 4y = 3

15x + 20y = 15     => 3x + 4y = 3

Let's use the elimination by addition and subtraction method.  Multiply the first equation by -1, obtaining

                                 -x - 4y = -3

Add the second       3x + 4y = 3

equation to the

first.

We get:                       2x = 0.

Thus, x = 0.  Substituting 0 for x in the 1st original equation yields:

2(0) + 8y = 6.  Then y = 6/8, or y = 3/4.

The solution is (0, 3/4).
