Answer:
Is there more information?
Step-by-step explanation:
Protons my dude.............
The number in the blank box should be 44 because it said that "3 times x and 4 times y is 44".
You need to multiply the first equation by 3:
3x + 3y = 39.
Then, subtract the first equation from the second equation:
3x - 3x = 0
4y - 3y = y
44 - 39 = 5
Your new equation should look like this: y = 5
Now, substitute y = 5 into the first original equation:
x + 5 = 13
x = 8
Ans. (x, y) = (8, 5)
Answer:
- 3a³ + 5a² - 3a + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(a³ - 2a + 5) - (4a³ - 5a² + a - 2)
Distribute both parenthesis noting the second is distributed by - 1
= a³ - 2a + 5 - 4a³ + 5a² - a + 2 ← collect like terms
= (a³ - 4a³ ) + 5a² + (- 2a - a) + (5 + 2)
= - 3a³ + 5a² - 3a + 7
