Answer:
Give us 25 points, but we need question !?
See attached for the solution
Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does.
-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)
-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36
-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.
28y=-56
divide by 28 on both sides.
Y= -2
Then substitute y into one of the equations.
x+6(-2)=-6
x-12=-6
x=6
The ordered pair is (6,-2).
Answer:
Value of x is used to consider unknown value. The letter “x” is commonly used in algebra to indicate an unknown value. It is referred to as a “variable” or, in some cases, a “unknown.” In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable. ... A variable need not be “x,” but might be “y,” "w," or any other letter, name, or symbol.
