Answer:
y = 1, x = - 8
or
(-8, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
-x + 4y = 12
x + y = -7
add the equations together
0x + 5y = 5
5y = 5
y = 1
substitute y for 1 in one of the original equations to find x
x + y = -7
x + 1 = -7
x + 1 - 1 = - 7 - 1
x = - 7 - 1
x = -8
Answer:
cat
Step-by-step explanation:

You would have to find out how many square feet the lawn is first:
70 x 50 = 3500 square feet
You are told that one pound = 200 square feet so use this to calculate how many pound you’ll need for 3500 square feet.
3500 square feet divided by 200 square feet = 17.5 pounds
Answer: 17.5 pounds
