Answer:

Adding 5 from both sides then dividing by 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to isolate x is to add 5 to both sides first:

21 = 7x

Then to isolate x by itself divide both sides by 7

x = 3

That would be the value of x and your final answer.

the linear combination method is applied to a system of equations as shown.4(.25x .5y = 3.75) → x 2y = 15 (4x – 8y = 12) → x – 2

gtnhenbr [62]

If we use the last equation:
2 x = 18
x = 18 : 2
x = 9
Then we will put it in another equation:
x - 2 y = 3
9 - 2 y = 3
- 2 y = 3 - 9
- 2 y = -6
y = -9 : ( -3 )
y = 3.
The solution is : D ) ( 9, 3 )
