7x + 4y = -8 (1)
-8x - 5y = 13 (2)

(2) + (1)
(-8x-5y)+(7x+4y) = (13)+(-8)
-8x-5y+7x+4y = 5
-x-y = 5 (3)

(3)x4
-4x-4y = 20 (4)

(4) + (1)
(-4x-4y)+(7x+4y) = (20)+(-8)
-4x-4y+7x+4y = 12
3x = 12
x = 4

Sub x=4 into (4)
-4x-4y = 20
-4(4)-4y = 20
-4y = 36
y = -9

Therefore x=4, y=-9.

Answer:

x=4 and y=−9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Problem:</u>

Solve 7x+4y=−8;−8x−5y=13

<u>Steps:</u>

I will solve your system by substitution.

(You can also solve this system by elimination.)'

7x+4y=−8;−8x−5y=13

Step: Solve 7x+4y=−8 for x:

7x+4y+−4y=−8+−4y(Add -4y to both sides)

7x=−4y−8

7x/7 =  -4y-8/7 (Divide both sides by 7)

x=-4/7y + -8/7

Step: Substitute -4/7y + -8/7 for x in −8x−5y=13:

−8x−5y=13

-8(-4/7y + -8/7) −5y=13

-3/7y + 64/7 =13(Simplify both sides of the equation)

-3/7y + 64/7 + -64/7 = 13 + -64/7 (Add (-64)/7 to both sides)

-3/7y = 27/7

-3/7y/-3/7 = 27/7/-3/7 (Divide both sides by (-3)/7)

y=−9

Step: Substitute −9 for y in x= -4/7y + -8/7:

x = -4/7y + -8/7

x = -4/7 (-9) + -8/7

x=4(Simplify both sides of the equation)

<u>Answer:</u>

x=4 and y=−9

The center of the dilation is the origin, and the scale factor is 2.

To find the coordinates of the points under this transformation, it is enough to multiply both coordinates of the points X, Y, and Z by 2.

Take a look at the dilation of point Z. To get to Z', both the x and y coordinate of Z must be multiplied by 2.


So, the coordinates are:

X'(8, 0); Y'(6, 4); Z'(4, -4).
