You mean their sum is 12?
A) x + y = 12
B) x -y = 4 then we add both equations:
2x = 16
x = 8
y = 4
I think in commutative properties of multiplication:
70 x 6000 = 70 x 6000
420,000 = 420,000
I don't know associative properties, only commutative properties. Sorry :(
Answer:
"a" must be negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope between points (-1, 1) and (1, -1) is a minimum of (-1-1)/(1-(-1)) = -1.
The slope between points (1, -1 and (3, -4) is a maximum of (-4-(-1))/(3-1) = -3/2.
Thus, as x increases, the slope is decreasing. In order for that to be the case, the value of <em>a</em> must satisfy a < 0.
