Which statement correctly explains how Dana can solve the following system of linear equations for x using the elimination metho

d?
4x+8y=20
-4x+2y= -30
Add the two equations, solve for y, and then substitute –1 for y to find x.
Multiply the bottom equation by –4, solve for y, and then substitute –1 for y to find x.
Multiply the bottom equation by –1, combine the two equations, solve for y, and then substitute 1 for y to find x.

1. The correct statement is the first one, which is: <span>Add the two equations, solve for y, and then substitute –1 for y to find x.
</span>
 2. Therefore, you have the following system of equations:
<span>
 4x+8y=20
 -4x+2y= -30

 3. When you a</span>dd the two equations, and clear the variable "y", you obtain:

 10y=-10
 y=-1

 4. Now, you must substitute -1 for y (y=-1) to find x, as below:

 4x+8y=20
 4x+8(-1)=20
 4x-8=20
 4x=20+8
 4x=28
 x=28/4
 x=7

Sever21 [200]
Well it depends on the type of crayon box that she buys. For instance, some crayon boxes have a 24 pack box of crayons while others have 64 or maybe even a 16 pack box of crayons. So it all depends on what kind of box she bought.

Need answer for d with working
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Question D.

Pretty simple if you know what the distributive property is. In this equation, you notice 2 fractions outside the parenthesis. This means you must multiply this fraction by every number within its corresponding parenthesis. So, if you distribute the new equation would be (\frac{5}{4}y+ 1)=(\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{3}). After this isolate the variable y and solve. I'll leave that to you so you can get something out of it, because my entire explanation would be useless if you just looked at the answer and left, not knowing how to do it in the future. :)

Cross-multiplication is helpful in Solving proportions.

<h3>What is Solving Proportions?</h3>

Solving proportions is simply a matter of stating the ratios as fractions, setting the two fractions equal to each other, cross-multiplying and solving the resulting equation.

<h3>What are the 2 methods for solving proportions?</h3>

Method I: Draw a double-sided number line, label the parts, set up a proportion and solve.

Method II: Using any method, calculate unit rate and then calculate how many pounds you can get for $30. Method III: Graph a point to represent the original ratio.

<h3>What is the rule for solving proportions?</h3>

The product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes.
