Answer:
x = 3 , y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that both equations is equal to y. Set the two equations equal to each other
y = 7x - 8; y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = 5x - 2
Isolate the x. Subtract 5x and add 8 to both sides
7x (-5x) - 8 (+8) = 5x (-5x) - 2 (+8)
7x - 5x = -2 + 8
Simplify.
(7x - 5x) = (-2 + 8)
2x = 6
Isolate the x. Divide 2 from both sides
(2x)/2 = (6)/2
x = 6/2
x = 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plug in 3 for x in one of the equations.
y = 7x - 8
y = 7(3) - 8
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
y = 7(3) - 8
y = 21 - 8
y = 13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 3, y = 13 is your answer

Answer:
Like terms are terms whose variables are the same.
We can only add them because if they does not have the same variable you do not actually know if the variables are equivalent and you will get the wrong answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ex: 4z,7z,108z,45z
Ex: 4w-2h+7a-2w
You can not add 4w and 7a because you do not know what the variables equal so you do not know the true number so add or subtract by.
12
2 multiplied by 6 is 12 and so 1 multiplied by something is 12
Hope this helps.
No. For instance, let’s look at 1)
It’s asking you to find what x is when x/10 = 6
So, consider the equation x/10=6
Multiply both sides by 10, and your answer is 60.
Now do this for each one.
