Answer:

x = -2,   y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it's a system of equations, we know that the they use the same variables. To use substitution to solve a system of equation, we must take one equation and solve it for a variable, then you plug the solution into that variable for the other equation:

-2x + y = 11

y = 2x + 11

-------

4x + 4y = 20

4x + 4(2x + 11) = 20

4x + 8x + 44 = 20

12x + 44 = 20

12x = -24

x = -2

Then we can plug "x" into the first equation:

-2x + y = 11

-2(-2) + y = 11

4 + y = 11

y = 7

This is a proportion problem that involves cross-multiplication
Set your problem up like so:
\frac{x}{2,000} = \frac{3}{5}

Now cross multiply
2,000 x 3 = 6,000
now you're left with 5x = 6,000
Now divide by 5 on both sides

A system of two linear equations has one solution. One of the equations is y = 2x + 25. Which could be the other equation? A y =
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

B.  y = -2x-25 These lines will intersect

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>y = 2x+25</u>  Which line has one solution to this equation:

A.  y = 2x+25   [This is the same line!  The solutions are infinite.]

<u>B.  y = -2x-25 </u> <u>[These lines will intersect.  They'll meet at the corner of -12.5th and Zero streets (-12.5,0)]</u>

C.  y = 2x-25  [Same slope, 2.  They, also, will never meet.  Pity]

D.  y = 2x [OMG.  Didn't parallel lines ever get the message.  Get with the slope and focus on the bliss of intersection.]

===============

[Extra Credit]

y = 2x + 25

y = –2x – 25

-----------

y = 2x + 25

<u>y = -2x - 25</u>

2y =  0

y = 0

--

y = 2x + 25

0 = 2x + 25

2x = -25

x = -12.5

<em>The single solution is (-12.5,0)</em>
