10) solve the equation for the variable "a":
2(x + a) = 4b

X2 + y 2 = 36 x + y = 6 solve the system of equations.

6x + 3y = -6 2x + y = -2 a. x = 0, y = -2 b. infinite solutions c. x = -1, y = 0 d. no solution

Solve the problem by making up an equation. a man could arrive on time for an appointment if he drove the car at 40 mph; however, since he left the house 15 minutes late, he drove the car at 50 mph and arrive 3 minutes early for the appointment. how far from his house was his appointment?
