<span>(x + 5 1/2) 0.75= 5/8<span>
Convert 0.75 into a fraction
</span></span><span>(x + 5 1/2) 3/4= 5/8
Use distributive property
3/4x + 5 1/2*3/4 = 5/8
Convert 5 1/2 into improper fraction
3/4x + 11/2*3/4 = 5/8
Multiply
3/4x + 33/8 = 5/8
Subtract 33/8 from both sides
3/4x = 5/8 - 33/8
Subtract the numerators but NOT the denominators
3/4x = -28/8
Divide 3/4 on both sides
x = -28/8 divided by 3/4
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 3/4 to 4/3
x = -28/8 * 4/3
Multiply
Final Answer: x = -112/24 or -4 16/24 or -4 4/6 or -4 2/3 *All answers are equivalent to each other.</span>

I don’t know what the answer to this question is , help
ipn [44]

Answer:

(4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

y = x - 4 → (1)

- 4x - 6y = - 16 → (2)

substitute y = x - 4 into (2)

- 4x - 6(x - 4) = - 16

- 4x - 6x + 24 = - 16

- 10x + 24 = - 16 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

- 10x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 10 )

x = 4

substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 4 - 4 = 0

solution is (4, 0)
