6.There are two numbers with the following properties. 1) The second number is 3 more than the first number. 2) The product of the two numbers is 9 more than their sum. Which of the following represents possible values of these two numbers? 6,3 4,1 1,4 3,6
7.Solve the equation: 5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13 -15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 +13 -16x 7 = -16x - 7 Add 16x + 7 to both sides and write the equation as follows 0 = 0
8. Simplify the expression 2(a -3) + 4b - 2(a -b -3) + 5 = 2a - 6 + 4b -2a + 2b + 6 + 5 = 6b + 5 10. Solve the equation |-2x + 2| -3 = -3 Add 3 to both sides of the equation and simplify |-2x + 2| = 0 If -2x + 2 = 0 Solve for x to obtain X=1
