What is the solution to the system of equations?

As with a system of equations, call them A and B in order to keep them straight.

A: x + y = 7

B: x = y + 3

Because in B we have x on one on one side and not x on the other, substitution is the way to go. Substitute equation B into equation A.

x + y = 7 Equation A

y + 3 + y = 7 Putting B into A

2y + 3 = 7 Collect like terms

2y = 4 Subtract 3 on both sides

y = 2 divide both sides by 2

With y = 2 we can substitute that back into an original equation. Choose B.

x = y + 3

x = 2 + 3

x = 5


Thus x = 5 and y = 2, or (5, 2) is the solution of this system.

I am thinking of a number. When I double my number and then subtract the result from five, I get negative one. What is my number
pogonyaev

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

To turn the word problem into an equation, when we read:

"I am thinking of a number" we write "x"

"when I double my number" we write "2x"

"and then subtract the result from 5" we write "5 - 2x"

"I get negative one" we write "-1 = 5 - 2x"

Now we solve for the number, which is x.

<em>Equation: </em>-1 = 5 - 2x

-1 = 5 - 2x

subtract 5 from both sides

-6 = -2x

divide both sides by -2

3 = x

<h3>There we go! The number is </h3><h2>3</h2>
