(I USED MY BRAIN SO IT MIGHT BE WRONG)
Answer:
x=1 y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate x for 4x -y=2: X=2+y/4
Substitute x= 2+y/4
(2+y/4 )+3y=7
simplify 2+13y/4=7
Isolate y for 2+13y/4=7
y=2
Forx= 2+y/4
Substitute y = 2
x= 2+2/4
Simplify
X=1
The only equation that works with x=-6 is A
x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
x + y = 12
<span>14x + 10y = 140
lets multiply the first equation by -10 and then add it to the second equation:
-10x - 10y = -120
</span>14x + 10y = <span>140
</span>-----------------------
4x + 0 = 20
x = 20/4
x = 5
then substitute in the original equation:
x + y = <span>12
</span>5 + y = <span>12
</span>y = 12 - 5
y = 7
therefore there were 5 adults and 7 children
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x+4) - 10 =14
distribute the 2 2x +8 -10 +14
simplify 2x-2=14
add 2 2x=16
devide by 2 x=8
