Answer:

x=7 and y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=6 OR X=6-Y  ...(1)

X-Y=8    ...(2)

substitue X=6-Y in (2)

(6-Y)-Y=8

6-2Y=8

-2Y=8-6

-2Y=2

Y=2/-2\Y=-1 ANS.

for x, substitute Y=-1 in (1) above

X-(-1)=8

X=8-1

X=7 ANS.

5 (2y - 2) + 4 = 4 what does y equal
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Solve your equation step-by-step.

5(2y−2)+4=4

Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(2y−2)+4=4

(5)(2y)+(5)(−2)+4=4(Distribute)

10y+−10+4=4

(10y)+(−10+4)=4(Combine Like Terms)

10y+−6=4

10y−6=4

Add 6 to both sides
.
10y−6+6=4+6

10y=10

Divide both sides by 10.

10y/10 = 10/10

\huge{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{y = 1}}}}}}}}
