5x = y + 6 (I)
2x - 3y = 4 (II)
-------------------
We have:
5x = y + 6 → x =  \frac{y+6}{5}

Soon:
2x - 3y = 4 → 2* (\frac{y+6}{5}) - 3y = 4\to \frac{2y+12}{5} - 3y = 4
<span>least common multiple (5)
</span>\frac{2y+12}{5} - 3y = 4\to \frac{2y+12}{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!5} - \frac{15y}{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!5} = \frac{20}{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!5}
2y + 12 - 15y = 20
- 15y + 2y = 20 - 12
- 13y = 8
\boxed{\boxed{y = - \frac{8}{13} }}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

-4(x+1)+5=17 solve for x
ahrayia [7]

-4(x + 1) + 5 = 17

Distribute -4 inside the parentheses.

(-4x - 4) + 5 = 17

Combine like terms (-4 + 5).

-4x + 1 = 17

Subtract 1 from both sides.

-4x = 16

Divide both sides by -4.

x = -4
