Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a=-7
r=21/-7=-3
Answer: (x,y) = (-1, 1)
This means that x = -1 and y = 1
========================================================
Explanation:
The first equation says that y is the same as 2x+3
That allows us to substitute y for 2x+3 in the second equation like so:
2x+5y = 3
2x+5( y ) = 3
2x + 5(2x+3) = 3 .... y replaced with 2x+3
2x+10x+15 = 3
12x+15 = 3
12x = 3-15
12x = -12
x = -12/12
x = -1
Then we'll substitute this into the first equation to find y
y = 2x+3
y = 2(-1) + 3 .... x replaced with -1
y = -2+3
y = 1
Together x = -1 and y = 1 pair up to form the ordered pair solution (x,y) = (-1,1)
If you were to graph y = 2x+3 and 2x+5y=3 on the same xy grid, then you should see that the two lines intersect at the location (-1,1). This is a visual way to determine the solution quickly through use of a graphing calculator.
Answer:
x= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+4=6x+20
so 2x-6x=20-4
divide both sides by -4
-4x/-4 = 16/4
=-4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solve for y:</u>
Add - 2x to both sides
- 2x + y - 2x = 7 - 2x
- y = 7 - 2x

5+6.50+7.21=18.71 30-18.71=$11.29 left
