Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use elimination method - I am eliminaing the y-variable.
1(5x + 8y = 16) → 5x + 8y = 16
4(6x - 2y = 54) → 24x - 8y = 216
Add equations: 29x = 232
Divide by 29: x = 8
Answer: x = 8
You cant simplify it anymore because it is not possible
Is there any options or anything to go with this?
Answer:138
Step-by-step explanation:
First plug in the c and d values into the expression:
6(5)^2-5(4)+8
Remember PEMDAS, so you do 5^2 first getting you 25.
6(25)-5(4)+8
Continue with PEMDAS and multiply -5 and 4, and that gets you -20.
150-20+8
Now you simplify the expression to get: 138.
