Answer:
Rewrite the first equation as x = 36 – 3y.
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3y = 36 (1)
4x + 5y = 9 (2)
Using substitution method
From (1)
x = 36 - 3y
Substitute x = 36 - 3y into (2)
4x + 5y = 9
4(36 - 3y) + 5y = 9
144 - 12y + 5y = 9
- 12y + 5y = 9 - 144
-7y = -135
y = -135 / -7
y = 19.3
There is an error with the second equation, 4x + 5y can not be equal to 9
Nevertheless, the first step when solving by substitution is:
Rewrite the first equation as
x = 36 – 3y.

Answer:
x = 1.56
Step-by-step explanation:
so what you have to do is isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Answer:
the first number is 5 the second number is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
first number = x
second number = y
X+2y=13 given this isolate x x = 13-2y
2x+y=14 substitute 13-2y for x
2(13-2y)+y=14
26-4y+y=14
-3y=-12
y=4 taking this number substitute into either equation above
x+2(4)=13
x+8=13
x=5
I'm pretty sure the answer is A. hope that helped
