Step-by-step explanation:
I'm guessing, you substitute j with 12 and then you would have 12/4 and that would be 3
Answer:
(- 2, 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x + 4y = 14 → (1)
x = 2y - 12 → (2)
Substitute x = 2y - 12 into (1)
3(2y - 12) + 4y = 14 ← distribute and simplify left side
6y - 36 + 4y = 14
10y - 36 = 14 ( add 36 to both sides )
10y = 50 ( divide both sides by 10 )
y = 5
Substitute y = 5 into (2) for corresponding value of x
x = 2(5) - 12 = 10 - 12 = - 2
Solution is (- 2, 5 )
2. So for this question, you do the distributive property, which is multiplying the term outside of the parenthesis by the terms in the parenthesis. In this case, the outside term is 1/2. 8x * 1/2 = 4x and 1/2 * -16 is -8. That brings us to 4x - 8, which is our answer. Therefore, the correct answer choice is B.
3. Okay. In this problem, we are talking about the sum of 12 and a number. That's 12 + n, because sum means the answer to the addition problem D is out, because we don't do distributive property in this case. The sum of 12 + n is 4n. The expression is 12 + n = 4n. The answer is B.
