Question

X= -5y + 36 5x + 5y = 0 The substitution method. Also please help me I’m so confused

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-9 y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x:

5(-5y+36)+5y=0

Use Distributive property

-25y+180+5y=0

Add Like terms

-20y+180=0

Subtract 180 from both sides

-20y=-180

divide -20 from both sides

y=9

Solve for x by substituting the value of y into the equation x= -5y + 36

to get x=-9

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -9
y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know that x  =  -5y + 36
The second line says that
5x + 5y = 0
We can substiute the value of x from the first line into the second line.

So it becomes
5 ( -5y+36) + 5y = 0
Distribute the 5 over the parentheses
-25y + 180 +5y = 0
Then we can add things that are alike; so that means we can add the y values
-20y + 180 = 0
Then add 20y to both sides of the equation
180 = 20y
Then you divide by 20.
You get 9 = y!
Now that you have the value of y, you can put it back into the intial question.
5x+5y = 0
5x + 5(9) = 0
5x + 45 = 0
5x = -45
x = -9
