To do this problem you would first need to factor out a variable, which in this case I would want to do the first equation because it is isolated. Now the equations would look like this:
x = -2y - 1
4x - 4y = 20
Since we know that x is now equal to -2y - 1 we can plug it in to the x value in the second equation:
4 (-2y -1) - 4y = 20
-8y -4 - 4y
-12y - 4 = 20
-12y = 24
y = -2
Now that we know the y value plug the y value to one equation to find the x, I will be using the first equation
x + 2(-2) = -1
x - 4 = -1
x = 3
Solutions:
y = -2
x = 3
Answer:
x = 5 or -1, put numbers into the formula and calculate
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Product means multiplication. Since we are multiplying 6s to (-2s²+4s-10), we will use the distributive property to solve.
6s(-2s² + 4s - 10)
-12s³ + 24² - 60

She began with 20.
If she bought 7 more books and ended up with 17, that means she had ten beforehand. If she had half remaining, we simply double it, thus getting 20.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
a²+20²=25²
a²=625-400
a²=225
a=15
