Equation 1)  x = 3y - 6
Equation 2)  2x - 4y = 8

Subtract 3y from both sides of the first equation.

1)  x - 3y = -6

Then, multiply all of the first equation by 2.

1)  2(x - 3y = -6)

1)  2x - 6y = -12
2)  2x - 4y = 8

Subtract equations.

-2y = -20

Divide both sides by -2.

y = 10

Plug in 10 for y in the first equation.

x = 3y - 6

x = 3(10) - 6

x = 30 - 6

x = -24

(10,24)

Hello

x = 3y - 6
2x - 4y = 8
We need to start by solving 3y - 6 for x
Substitute 3y -6 for x in 2x
2x - 4y = 8
2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
2y - 12 = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2 = 20/2
y = 10

Now, substitute 10 for y in x= 3y
x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x= 24

Answer : x = 24 and y=10

I hope this help!

What is the soulution of -(-5-6x) = 4(5x+3)?
Fynjy0 [20]
You have to distribute the parentheses first. Since there is a negative sign in front of the parentheses, it counts as a negative 1. After you distribute you should get: -5+6x=20x+12, but that is not your final answer. After you add like terms: 17x=-17. Divide 17 on both sides: x=-1. X=-1 is your final answer.

Complete the square to make a perfect square trinomial. Then, write the result as a binomial squared. n^2-4n/3
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

(n- 2/3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Perfect square trinomial is: </em><em>a²+2ab+b²= (a+b)²</em>

We have:

  • n² - 4n/3

It can be put as:

  • n² -2×n×2/3

Here we consider n = a and -2/3 = b, then

  • b²= (-2/3)²= 4/9

Now we add 4/9 to a given binomial to make it perfect square:

  • n² - 2×n×3/2 + 4/9= (n- 2/3)²

So, added 4/9 and got a perfect square (n- 2/3)²

MArishka [77]
Well (x+5)(×-6)
x*x =x2
x*-6=-6x
x*5 = 5x
5*-6= -30
add them all together to get x2-x-30.
