2x=18
x=18/2 =9
x=9
y =9-6 =3
9+3 =12
Larger number is 9

b. (−1,−4)
c. (5,1)
d. (−1,−7)
The values of x and y after solving both the equations by the elimination method are -4 and -1. So option A is correct
What is an Equation ?An equation is a mathematical term, which indicates that the value of two algebraic expressions are equal. There are various parts of an equation which are, coefficients, variables, constants, terms, operators, expressions, and equal to sign.
For example, 3x+2y=0.
Types of equation
1. Linear Equation
2. Quadratic Equation
3. Cubic Equation
Given that,
Two linear equations
−2x − y = 9
2x − 9y = 1
by using elimination method,
−2x − y = 9
2x − 9y = 1
0 - 10y = 10
y = -1
2x − 9× -1 = 1
2x = -8
x = -4
Hence, the values are, -4 and -1

Find the area of a square with apothem 9 in. Round to the nearest whole number.
281 in2
305 in2
458 in2
324 in2
Answer:
The area of the square is 324 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The apothem of the square is 9 inches.
The side of the square is twice the length of the apothem.
Hence, the side of the square is given by
[tex]a=2\times 9=18\text{ in}[/tex]
The area of a square is the given by
[tex]A=a^2\\A=18^2\\A=324\text{ in}^2[/tex]
Therefore, the area of the square is 324 square inches.

What is the prime factorization of -96? tell me how do u get the answer
Answer: -1 x 2^5 x 3
Step-by-step explanation: To find the prime factorization of -96, we need to first factor out -1, which gives us 1 x (-1) x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3. Then, we can rewrite -1 as -1^1, and combine the 2's to get 2^5. So the prime factorization of -96 is -1^1 x 2^5 x 3.
Remember, negative numbers can also have prime factorizations.

Explain what needs to happen to the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number. a. nothing happens c. change the inequality sign to an equals sign b. flip the inequality sign d. the inequality needs to be graphed on a number line
Answer:
(B) flip the inequality sign.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we consider an inequality such that [tex]-x\leq7[/tex], then if we multiply the inequality with a negative number such as [tex]-1[/tex], then the inequality becomes [tex]x\geq-7[/tex].
Also, if we divide the above inequality [tex]-x\leq7[/tex], by a negative number that is [tex]-1[/tex], then the inequality becomes [tex]x\geq-7[/tex].
Therefore, if we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, then it flips the inequality sign.
Hence, option (B) is correct.

Permutations!!
If 9 actors must sit together how many ways are there to seat 13 people around the table?
To calculate the number of ways to seat 13 people around a table with 9 actors sitting together, we treat the 9 actors as one unit and then arrange the five units around the table, resulting in (4! * 9!) different possible arrangements.
Explanation:The question asks us to calculate the number of ways to seat 13 people around a table if 9 actors must sit together. This can be approached as a permutations problem in combinatorics.
Firstly, treat the 9 actors as one unit since they must sit together. With this in mind, we effectively have 5 units to arrange: the group of 9 actors and the remaining 4 individuals. As the seating arrangement is around a circular table, we can fix one person's seat and arrange the remaining units. As a result, there are (5-1)! ways to arrange these units since circular permutations eliminate the concept of a distinct 'starting' point that linear permutations have.
Now we need to consider the arrangements of the 9 actors within their group. Since their relative positions to each other matter, they can be permuted in 9! ways.
Therefore, the total number of seating arrangements would be the product of the two permutations: (5-1)! * 9!.
Calculating this gives us (4!) * 9! = (4*3*2*1) * (9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) different possible arrangements.

What are the explicit equation and domain for a geometric sequence with a first term of 3 and a second term of −9?
Answer: [tex]\ a_{n}=3(-3)^{n-1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A geometric sequence with its first term [tex]a_1=a=3[/tex]
and second term [tex]a_2=-9[/tex]
We know that the common ratio in of a geometric sequence=[tex]\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n-1}}[/tex]
Thus, common ratio [tex]r=\frac{-9}{3}=-3[/tex]
We know that the explicit rule for geometric sequence is written as
[tex]a_{n}=ar^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow\ a_{n}=3(-3)^{n-1}..[\text{by substituting the values of 'a' and 'r' in it }][/tex]
Thus, the explicit rule for the given geometric sequence is [tex]\ a_{n}=3(-3)^{n-1}[/tex] for every n ,a natural number.

in a certain county, the number of charter schools is 4 less than twice the number of alternative schools. We know that there are 48 charter schools in the county. How many alternative schools are in the county?
Answer:
There are [tex]26[/tex] alternative schools in the country
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> the number of charter schools
y-----> the number of alternative schools
we know that
[tex]x=48[/tex]
[tex]x=2y-4[/tex] -----> equation A
substitute the value of x in the equation A and solve for y
[tex]48=2y-4[/tex]
[tex]2y=48+4[/tex]
