start by plugging in the value you already have, in this case, 5 for y.
-4x-3(5)=17
-4x-15=17
-4x=32
x=-8
however, since a is a+1, a would be 7 (making x 8)
also plz tell me if i read this wrong and it’s actually 1,5 rather than a+1 and 5 cause if i did i’m so sorry lol.
Answer:
x = 3.25
y =4.75
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to Solve the following system of equations below algebraically using substitution method we say that;
let;
8x - 4y = 7
..................... equation 1
x + y = 8.......................... equation 2
from equation2
x + y = 8.......................... equation 2
x = 8 - y.............................. equation 3
substitute for x in equation 1
8x - 4y = 7
..................... equation 1
8(8-y) - 4y = 7
64-8y-4y=7
64-12y=7
collect the like terms
64-7 = 12y
57= 12y
divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 12
57/12 = 12y/12
4.75 = y
y =4.75
put y = 4.75 in equation 3
x = 8 - y.............................. equation 3
x = 8 -4.75
x = 3.25
to check if your answer is correct, put the value of x and y in either equation 1 or 2
from equation 2
x + y = 8.......................... equation 2
3.25 + 4.75 =8
8=8.................... proved
The correct answer is 2 1/6.
Good Luck...:)
A line is 180 so you subtract 126 with 180 and get 54. Since a Triangle angles all equal 180 together you add 54 and 43 and subtract 180 and the answer is 83
D) initial value of 60 and multiplying by 1/3
