Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1 - Rewrite
6 - 2/3 (x+5) = 4x
2 - Distribute
6 - 2/3x + 10/3 = 4x
3 - Combine like terms and get x alone
6 10/3 - 2/3x = 4x
+2/3x +2/3x
6 10/3 = 4 2/3x
------------------------------- Convert to decimals
6.3333333333.... = 4.333...x
-------------------------------- Divide both sides by 4.33...x
2 = x

Hi there!
x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y
-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4
x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21
So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.
Hope this helps!
