Answer:
x= 2,
,y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = 5x - 5
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]
[2] -4x + 2•(5x-5) = 2
[2] 6x = 12
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 6x = 12
[2] x = 2
// By now we know this much :
x = 2
y = 5x-5
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = 5(2)-5 = 5
Solution :
{x,y} = {2,5}
Answer:
isn't there a problem to this ?
Step-by-step explanation:
2.25 x 3 = 6.75
,6.75 x .05 = 0.34
,6.75 + 0.34 = 7.09
,Answer is $7.09
Answer:
E = 30h = 30(5) = 150 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
....
Is it bad that I immediately thought Light Yagami?
It is pretty easy to eliminate the wrong answers by trying the answers in the equations.
a. 7 times 30 is way more than 4
c. 6 times 226 is way more than 172, even after subtracting 64
d. 7 times -74 is way less than 4
The appropriate choice is
... b. x=4, y=30
You can check it with your graphing calculator.
_____
Since you have an expression for y, you can substitute that into the second equation:
... -2x + 6(2+7x) = 172 . . . . substitute for y
... 40x = 160 . . . . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 12, collect terms
... x = 4 . . . . . . this is sufficient to help you locate the correct answer
