Can you help me with my Algebra 2 homework? Part 2?
Write an equation in slope intercept form [(the slope is -2 and passes through (-4,6) (i got 6=6(-4)+b].
Solving Systems of Equations Algebraically with Substitution (Ex. x=4… 2x-3y=-19… i got y=-9) and Elimination(Ex. -4+y=-12
-4x+2y=6)
And Lastly, Monomials (Ex. 18x^2-4y^2+(-7x^2)-6y^2… I got 25x^2-10y^2.
I know, half of these answers are probably wrong. I don’t think there should be summer homework for stuff that we haven’t learned yet. Thanks a lot.

you can do inequality problems just like reg. equations the only thing you have to remember is to flip the inequality sign IF and only IF you DIVIDE by a negative number.
as for the second one
theres only one mistake ….it should be 6=-2(-4)+b
but then you have to solve for B
and insert that number into the equation
so it should look like this: y= -2x-2
the first substitution answer is correct
for the second one i would recomend using substitution again
first take -4+y= -12 and solve for y
y = -8
now take that number and plug it into the second equation to get x
the answer to the last problem should be
11x^2 -10y^2
Inequalities. Solve like equalities. Remember though, if you divide by a negative number, the sign flips.
3a – 15 > 6
3a > 21
a > 7
Good job!
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the intercept. Your answer is not complete.
Plug in the x and y coordinates given and the slope and solve for b.
6 = (-2)(-4) + b
6 = 8 + b
-2 = b
Now, use the x and y variables and put the slope for m and put -2 for b.
y = -2x – 2
That is your final answer.
Substitution means to plug in one thing for another and solve.
2x – 3y = -19
2(4) – 3y = -19
8 – 3y = -19
-3y = -27
y = 9
Elimination is a bit trickier. It means to kind of subtract the entire equations to get it down to one variable.
-4x + y = -12
-4x + 2y = 6
Multiply the second equation by -1 so that you can cancel the x’s.
-4x + y = -12
4x – 2y = -6
—————–
-y = -18
y = 18
Plug that into one of the equations.
-4x + 18 = -12
-4x = -30
x = 30/4 or 15/2
Is that the full polynomial. It’s not a monomial because mono means one.
18x^2 – 4y^2 – 7x^2 – 6y^2
Combine like terms.
11x^2 – 10y^2
That’s it. I don’t know how you got 25 unless part of the question got cut off. You have to put spaces or yahoo will shorten it.
