8x - 2y = 48 ; find x  if y = 4.

x = 7

substitute y with number 4.

8x - 2(4) = 48
8x - 8 = 48

find x. transfer -8 to the other side and change its sign from negative to positive.

8x = 48 + 8
8x = 56

find x. divide both sides by 8.

8x/8 = 56/8
x = 7

to check substitute x with 7 and y with 4.

8x - 2y = 48
8(7) - 2(4) = 48
56 - 8 = 48
48 = 48

8x - 2y = 48
If y is given as 4, then "plug it into the equation".
8x - 2(4) = 48 
8x - 8 = 48 --> Add 8 to both sides of the equation to isolate the x variable
8x = 56 --> Divide both sides by 8
x = 7

Answer:

B = 22

C = 122

D = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles of a triangle add to 180. Take the measure of each angle add them together. Set them equal to 180.

2x + x + 4 + 7x - 4 = 180

10x = 180

x = 18

To find each angle, substitute x = 18.

Angle B is 18 + 4 = 22

Angle C is 7(18) - 4 = 122

Angle D is 2(18) = 36

Solve the following for the x and y values. X being 0 when solving for Y, and vice versa.
Aleonysh [2.5K]
It states your "X" will be zero when solving for "Y". So when solving for "Y" your equation would be; 0+y=4 Then you solve. Y=4 Then you do the same with the "X": X+0=4. Then you solve. X=4 It would end up being (4(x),4(y) ) Then do the same for the next problem.

Linda bought $87.95 worth of merchandise at an electronics store. She
forsale [732]

Answer:  She paid $66.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The overall amount that you paid for the video game was 87.95. She got 27.79 back as a refund. So you subtract what she paid from her refund. 87.95-27.79 = 60.16.  She also had to pay a fine for the video game. So you add the fine to the amount. 60.16+6.17 = 66.33.

Overall, she paid 66.33.
