Betty spend 5/12 of her money (5/12)x and had 42 dollars left. Translated,

x - \frac 5{12} x = 42

Solving,

x(1 - \frac 5{12}) = 42

\frac{7}{12} x = 42

x =  \dfrac{12}{7} \cdot 42 = 72

Answer: $72

What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first?<br> -2x+y=0<br> - 7x + 3y = 2
artcher [175]

Answer:

5x - 2y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 2x + y = 0 → (1)

- 7x + 3y = 2 → (2)

Subtracting (2) from (1) term by term

- 2x - (- 7x) + y - 3y = 0 - 2, that is

- 2x + 7x - 2y = - 2

5x - 2y = - 2
