(3.75, 5.5)
(Work is attached )
When using substitution , you substitute with a variable that is already by itself. In this case, the variable “y” is already by itself and equal to x+ 1.75 . you substitute that for the the y in the other equation and solve for the other variable which is “x”. After you solve for x , to find your y value, you have to substitute the x value in for either equation.
12.66382829 this is the answer i got
0.07 is the larger number out of the two
2x+15 = 3x-25
2x-3x = -25 -15
-x = -40
x = 40
That would be <span>50.6, I believe. You multiply 92 by 55% or .55 and get 50.6 </span>
