What is the solution to the system of equation 2x-y=7 Y=2x+3

Mathematics

<span><span>4x - y = -4</span>
<span><span>-y = -4 - 4x (subtract 4x from each side)
y = 4 + 4x (divide by -1)
y = 4x + 4 (commutative property of addition to get the x-value in front). 

Now we must plug what we have gotten y to equal into the other equation. If we try to plug what we have rearranged back into the original equation, we don't get anywhere. 

2x - y = -7
2x - 1(4x + 4) = -7 (substitution)
2x - 4x - 4 = -7 (distributive property with -1)
-2x - 4 = -7 (combine like terms)
-2x = -3 (add 4 to each side)
x = 3/2 (divide by -2). 

You</span></span><span>2x-y=7
Y=2x+3</span><span> have just solved for x! We can now plug what we have found for x into either equation to get what y equals. (If this is truly a system of linear equations, then it will not matter which one we use.) 

2(3/2) - y = -7 (substitution)

6/2 - y = -7 (multiplication)
3 - y = -7 (division)
- y = -10 (subtraction)
y = 10 (division) 

You have just found y! As a point, the solution to this system is (3/2, 10) with the x-coordinate first and the y-coordinate second. If we plug x and y into both equations, we will find that they will make the equations true. This is how we check ourselves. Using both equations: 

4x - y = -4
4(3/2) - 10 = -4 (does the left half equal -4?)
12/2 - 10 = -4
6 - 10 = -4
-4 = -4 (it does); 

2x - y = -7
2(3/2) - 10 = -7
3 - 10 = -7
-7 = -7. </span></span>

Help w #5 !! will mark brainlist
iris [78.8K]

The sum that represents the number of tickets sold if 35 tickets were sold Monday, half of the remaining tickets were sold on Tuesday and 14 tickets were sold on Wednesday.

To start solving this, we can assign t as the variable to the total number of tickets that were sold. So, t = 35 (for Monday) + (t - 35)/2 (for Tuesday) + 14 (for Wednesday). To solve this, we can say t = 49 + (t - 35)/2, or 2t = 98 + t - 35, which equals t = 63. Therefore, 63 tickets were sold total.

A department store offers free samples of a 2-ounce
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The situation you are describing can be written as y=2x, or in this case t=2f, for every fragrance purchased there are 2 ounces of lotion that are given. Since the ounces of fragrance are not shown in this question, we can only make the graph on the ounces of lotion for every fragarance purchased. The points of the graph represent that for every fragrance bought, there is twice the amount of that in ounces of lotion. In summary,  the rule is t=2f where t would equal purchases of fragrance and f would equal the ounces of lotion.

(If there is any more you would like to add to the question I can answer that.)
