Hey!
Hope this helps...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
x + y = 3
x = 3 - y
y = 2x - 15
y = 2(3 - y) - 15
y = 6 - 2y - 15
y = -2y - 9
3y = -9
y = -3
y = 2x - 15
-3 = 2x - 15
-2x = -12
x = 6
So...
The answer is: (6, -3)
If we expand bx to jx and kx we have:
5y^2-2y-7
5y^2-7y+5y-7 then factor...
y(5y-7)+1(5y-7)
(y+1)(5y-7)
So the other factor is:
(y+1)
<span>0.03 x 1,000=30! In multiplying decimals, you'll move the decimal's period to the number of zeroes in the multiplier! 1,000 has 3 zeroes. So, it's equal to 30. So basically he was wrong because 0.03 times 1,000 doesn't equal 3 it equals 30. He made the mistake of not moving the decimal point enough.</span>
