Answer:
A) 56 . . . . . . the (negative) sum of -7 and -49
b) 112 . . . . . the product of 7 and 16
c) 16 . . . . . . the square of 8/2
Add the two equations and use the elimination method. The x term will "cancel out" to be able to solve for the y term.
STEP 1
−12x−5y=40
12x−11y=88
x terms "cancels out"; add y terms
-16y= 128
divide both sides by -16
y= -8
STEP 2
substitute y value into either original equation
12x−11y=88
12x - 11(-8)= 88
12x + 88= 88
subtract 88 from both sides
12x= 0
divide both sides by 12; 0 divided by any number is 0
x= 0
ANSWER: x= 0; y= -8
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
g(n) = 0.05·2^n
Step-by-step explanation:
The paper with no folds is 0.05 mm thick. Each fold multiplies the thickness by 2, so the function is ...
g(n) = 0.05·2^n

<em>Comment on paper folding</em>
In practice, where the paper must bend around the fold, it is impossible to fold an ordinary piece of paper 9 times. You may be able to fold a very large, very thin piece of paper that many times.
