Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
6x
Discussion:
7x = 7 times x
x = 1 times x
So both terms are "like" terms in x:
7x - x = (7-1)x = 6x
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - y = 3.......(1)
2y = 10x+2.....(2)
Rearranging (2)
-10x + 2y = 2......(3)
Multiply equation (1) by 2
10x - 2y = 6..........(4)
Adding (3) and (4)
-10x + 10x + 2y - 2y = 2 + 6
No solution since both x and y are eliminated.
