X-5y=-21
x=-21+5y
-6(-21+5y)+4y=10
126+-30y+4y=10
126+-26y=10
-26y=-116
y=4.4615
x=1.3076
12:8
or you can simplify it to
3:2
Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
EM = 5x
ET is half of EM so this statement is true: 5x = 2(3x + 2)
Solve for x.
5x = 2(3x +2)
Distribute 2.
5x = 6x + 4
Isolate x.
-x = 4
Divide -1 out.
x = -4
