Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The solution of the system of the equation is (2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the system of equations

3x + y = 8 ⇒ (1)

3x - y = 4 ⇒ (2)

→ Add equations (1) and (2) to eliminate y

∴ (3x + 3x) + (y + -y) = (8 + 4)

∴ 6x + 0 = 12

∴ 6x = 12

→ Divide both sides by 6 to find x

(6x)/(6)=(12)/(6)

x = 2

→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

3(2) + y = 8

∴ 6 + y = 8

→ Subtract 6 from both sides

∵ 6 - 6 + y = 8 - 6

y = 2

The solution of the system of the equation is (2, 2)

BEST ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!! PLEASE HELPA rectangle with width of 3. There is a vertical line that splits rectangle into two sections with different lengths. One length is x the other is 4.

3(x + 4) represents the area of the rectangle above. Which expression below is equivalent by the Distributive Property?

3x+12
(3 + x) + 4
(x + 4) ⋅ 3
3x + 4

Answers

the answer is 3X + 12 because in he distributive property you must multiply both the 3X and the 4 by 3

3x1=3 hence the 3X

and 3x4 = 12

Determine which polynomial has (x – 9) as a factor.

Answers

Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-9) is a factor

x-9 =0 so x=9

now we plug in 9 for x  and see which polynomial gives us remainder 0

A. x^2 - 6x +9 = 9^2 - 6(9) + 9 = 36

Remainder = 36 so (x-9) is not a factor

B) x^2 + 16x + 63= 9^2 + 16(9) + 63 = 288

Remainder =288 so (x-9) is not a factor

C) x^2 + 14x + 45= 9^2 + 14(9) + 45 = 252

Remainder = 252 so (x-9) is not a factor

D) x^2 - 12x + 27= 9^2 -12(9) + 27 = 0

Remainder = 0 so (x-9) is a factor
