Do you know what the first step is
Absolute value tells how many spaces the number is from 0. And opposite numbers are negative numbers on the left side of 0.
Answer:
(1/2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, determine y in first equation: 2x+y=5 or y=5-2x
replace value of y determined in first equation (5-2x) into 2nd equation
4x-3(5-2x)=-10
4x-15+6x=10
10x=5
x=1/2
put value of x into either equation to solve for y so
2(1/2)+y=5
1+y=5
y=4
answer: x=1/2, y=4
check answer by substituting x and y into either equation:
4x-3y=-10
4(1/2)-3(4)=-10
2-12=-10
-10=-10
or
2x+y=5
2(1/2)+4=5
1+4=5
5=5
