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!

Why does the fact family for 81 and 9 have only two number sentences
qwelly [4]
Because there are only two things you can do with these two " family" members. 81 divided by 9 is 9. 9 times 9 is 81. Strictly speaking, there should be three in the family: 9,9 and 81 9 is the square root of 81. 81 is the 9 squared.

azamat

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{17}{10}=1.7}

Step-by-step explanation:

8=2^3\\\\\dfrac{1}{16}=\dfrac{1}{2^4}=2^{-4}\qquad\text{used}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\8^{2x-3}=\left(\dfrac{1}{16}\right)^{x-2}\\\\(2^3)^{2x-3}=(2^{-4})^{x-2}\qquad\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\2^{3(2x-3)}=2^{-4(x-2)}\iff3(2x-3)=-4(x-2)\\\\\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\(3)(2x)+(3)(-3)=(-4)(x)+(-4)(-2)\\\\6x-9=-4x+8\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\6x=-4x+17\qquad\text{add 4x to both sides}\\\\10x=17\qquad\text{divide both sides by 10}\\\\x=1.7
