Answer:
I would change 2x+4y=24 into x=12–2y
To do that, divide both sides by 2 and then subtract 2y on each side.
After that, substitute for x. 3x+2y=19 would become 3(12–2y)+2y=19.
Then solve.
3(12–2y)+2y=19
36–6y+2y=19
-4y+36=19
-4y=-17
y=4.25
Then, substitute y in either equation.
Either this:
3x+2y=19
3x+2(4.25)=19
3x+8.5=19
3x=10.5
x=3.5
Or:
2x+4y=24
2x+4(4.25)=24
2x+17=24
2x=7
x=3.5
Or you could solve it in the equation you created in the beginning:
x=12–2y
x=12–2(4.25)
x=12–8.5
x=3.5
The coordinates where the lines intercept are (3.5, 4.25).
Sorry for the long answer!
Answer: n + (n + 2) = 84
Step-by-step explanation:
If n is the smallest integer, the other integer must be two more than that, because it has to be odd. The two numbers add up to 84, so the other side of the equation is 84.
