Both nalani and i are leaving so we can go to the movie.

which is the correlating conjunction?

Both/and

Explanation:

Correlatives conjunctions are a type of conjunction that join sentence elements that are equally important, and that come in pairs but are not next to each other. Examples of correlative conjunctions are Both/and, neither/nor, not only/but also, as/as, as many/as, such/that, rather/than and whether/or.

Therefore, the correlative conjunction in the sentence “Both Nalani and I are leaving so we can go to the movie” is “Both/and” which joins the nouns “Nalani” and “I.”

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4
