Substitution method is one of the way in determining the value of a variable by substituting the variable by the value of an equation and simplifying its value. So in step by step way, 7x-5(2x-4) is the equation result in substituting the Y variable. By simplifying the value of x is 3.34 and Y is 2.68

Substitute y= 2x - 4 into 7x - 5y = 14.

> 7x - 5(2x - 4) = 14
> 7x - 10x + 20 = 14
> -3x = -6
> x = 2

Now sub x = 2 back into y= 2x - 4 to find what y equals.

> y = 2(2) - 4
> y = 4 - 4
> y = 0

Therefore, x = 2 and y = 0.

What degree did foreign influence impact the social, religious, and economic development of two of the following African regions

Leokris [45]

Answer:

South Africa is known for its diversity of cultures, languages and religious beliefs, which is why it is known as the rainbow nation. Eleven languages are recognized as official by the Constitution of South Africa. Two of the eleven languages are of European origin: Afrikaans, a language that comes directly from Dutch and is spoken by the majority of the white and mestizo population, and English. Although English plays an important role in public and commercial life, it is, however, the fifth language by native speakers. South Africa is an ethnically diverse country. 79.5% of the South African population is black, which is divided into different ethnic groups that speak different Bantu languages, nine of which are official. It also has the largest communities of inhabitants of European and Indian origin, as well as multiracial communities on the continent.

West Africa is one of the first regions of the planet where the native cultivation of certain plants began, so the beginning of Neolithic cultures in the region is around 5000 BC. C. (almost two millennia after the estimated date for the Nile Valley). Nok culture is one of the main prehistoric cultures of West Africa. What happened later during the protohistoric period in West Africa would have a decisive influence on the demographic, historical and cultural configuration of sub-Saharan Africa, since the Bantu expansion that occurred in most of Africa originated from the historical developments of Africa Western. During the European Middle Ages in West Africa there were several centralized states and empires, some of which maintained active commercial relations especially with the Muslim world. Among the most notable states of this period in West Africa are the Empire of Ghana (s. VIII-XI), the Empire of Mali (s. XIII-XVII), the Jolof Empire (s. XIV-XVI) and the Songhay Empire (s. XIV-XVI).

In your opinion, is taking the law into one's own hands

Svet_ta [14]

The simple answer to your complex question is NO. This is assuming that you live in a country where there are good laws (remember that history is full of bad governments that implemented bad laws) and that law enforcement is effective. Simplisticly, you should only ask yourself this question when your or your families life is being threatened and law enforcement is not around. Your response must still be within the constraints of your laws or you will find yourself in hot water. I'm not even going to try to discuss the ethics and morals that can apply as the situation can vary immensely. Keep it simple - don't operate outside the law, rather fight against unjust laws.
