Answer:

A ) subtract the second equation from the first equation

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 7

2x - 4y = -5

subtracting the second equation from the first equation we get,

7y = 12

y=12/7

This is the correct option

Answer:

A ) subtract the second equation from the first equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the following system of equations.

2x + 3y = 7

2x = 4y - 5

If we subtract the second equation from the first equation, we get:

2x + 3y - 2x = 7 - (4y - 5)

3y = 7 - 4y + 5

7y = 12

y = 12/7

Then, we can use any of the original equations and solve for x.

2x = 4y - 5

2x = 4(12/7) - 5

x = 13/14

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Markup= 1.81

Sale price =9.06

Step-by-step explanation:

The markup is the original prices times the markup rate

markup = 7.25 * 25%

            = 7.25 * .25

             =1.8125

We round this to the nearest cent

           =1.81

The new sale price will be the original price + the markup

7.25+1.81

9.06

X = y 2 - 1
pochemuha
Your answer would be option B. 2y² - y - 6 = 0. This is because if you were to substitute x = y² - 1 into the equation 2x - y = 4, you would get 2(y² - 1) - y = 4, which expands into 2y² - 2 - y = 4, and then simplifies to 2y² - y - 6 = 0.
I hope this helps!
