The solution to the equations 3x - 4y=12 and 2x+y=8 are x = 4 and y = 0

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have two equations:

3x - 4y=12 and

2x+y=8

Multiplu by 4 on both side in equation  2x+y=8

8x + 4y = 32

Add the equaton 8x + 4y = 32 and 3x - 4y=12

3x - 4y=12

8x + 4y = 32

11x = 44

x = 4

Similarly, we can find the value of y:

y = 0

Thus, the solution to the equations 3x - 4y=12 and 2x+y=8 are x = 4 and y = 0

For what values of the following expressions are true: |a−5|=5−a
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Whenever a-5<0 or a<5

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you have an absolute value, that turns into two equations. The one we care about is -(a-5)=5-a. After distributing the negative through the left side of the equation, you'll get that 5-a=5-a, which is an identity. But you can only say that abs(a-5)=5-a when a-5<0. To see a visual representation of this, graph both sides of the equation in desmos.
