Answer:
c I just saw ur question sorry if I too late
Given equations are;<span>
2a + 3b = -1 ..................equation 1
3a + 5b = -2 ....................equation 2</span>
Now multiply equation 1 with (-3)
The equation will be;
-6a -9b = 3 …………………..equation 3
Now multiply equation 2 with (2)
The equation will be;
6a + 10b = -4 ……………..equation 4
Now add equation 3 and equation 4
-6a – 9b = 3
<span>6a + 10b = -4</span>
<span>------------------------------</span>
0a + b = -1
b = -1
Now put the value of b in equation 1
2a + 3(-1) = -1
2a -3 = -1
2a = -1+3
2a = 2
a=1
Thus the solution is (a,b) = (1,-1)

(0,a)
it didnt move left or right on the x-axis
it went up a units (since its half of 2a)
Just for you beautiful!
Use distance formula: d = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
(11,-4) is (x1,y1) and (-12,-4) is (x2,y2)
Plug in and simplify
d = sqrt((-12 - 11)^2 + (-4 - -4)^2)
d = sqrt((-23)^2 + (0)^2)
d = sqrt(529 + 0)
d = sqrt(529)
d = 23 (positive because length cannot be negative) ;)
