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

×WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST×<br>Solve the equation for b, d and x
Lera25 [3.4K]
Solve for d:
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c is equivalent to 2 d - 3 c = (3 (a + x))/b:
2 d - 3 c = (3 (a + x))/b
Add 3 c to both sides:
2 d = 3 c + (3 (a + x))/b
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: d = (3 c)/2 + (3 (a + x))/(2 b)


-----------------------------

Solve for x:
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c
Multiply both sides by b/3:
a + x = (2 b d)/3 - b c
Subtract a from both sides:
Answer:  x = (2 b d)/3 + (-a - b c)

____________________________


Solve for b:
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c
Take the reciprocal of both sides:
b/(3 (a + x)) = 1/(2 d - 3 c)
Multiply both sides by 3 (a + x):
Answer: b = (3 (a + x))/(2 d - 3 c)
