Multiply you first equation by 2 to get 4x + 10y = 22
Now the x terms can be eliminated and cancelled out using elimination.
4x + 10y = 22
4x + 3y = 1
To eliminate you need to "subtract", so you need to multiply one of the equations by -1.
4x + 10y = 22
-4x -3y = -1
------------------
0 + 7y = 21
y = 3
Now plug 3 into either one of the equations to get x.
True statements:
a) x + y = y + x ⇒ commutative property of addition
b) (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) ⇒ associative property of multiplication
d) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ⇒ associative property of addition
False statements:
c) x - y = y - x should be: x - y = - y + x
e) (x - y) - z = x - (y - z) should be: (x - y) - z = x - (y + z)
The perimeter means the sum of all sides.
So, In pentagon, it would be: 5(15) [ With five sides ]
In short, Your Answer would be Option C
Hope this helps!
3y + 12 = 6x
3y = 6x - 12
y = 2x - 4
2y = 4x + (-8)
y = 2x + (-4)....the same as y = 2x - 4
b would have to be a -8
