So you have the equations
x + 4y = 6
x + 3y = 5
Subtract the two equations.
You get y = 1.
The only answer with a value of y = 1 is A
A is your answer.
Have a nice day! :)
When getting the "inverse relation" of any expression, you'd always start off by doing a quick switcharoo on the variables, and then solve for "y", let's do so.
Answer:
y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5y−14=2y−2
Step 1: Subtract 2y from both sides.
5y−14−2y=2y−2−2y
3y−14=−2
Step 2: Add 14 to both sides.
3y−14+14=−2+14
3y=12
Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.
3y/3=12/3
y=4
