Both are correct,
For lori’s answer u divide by 6 which is that same as 72/6
A. Alright, we want to multiply one equation by a constant to make it cancel out with the second. Since the first equation has a "blank" y, let's multiply the first equation by <em>2</em>.
3x-y=0 → 2(3x-y=0) = 6x - 2y = 0
5x+2y=22
The answer for this part would be: 6x - 2y = 0 and 5x + 2y = 22
B. So now we combine them:
6x - 2y = 0
+ + +
5x + 2y = 22
= = =
11x + 0 = 22 ← The answer
C. Now that we have the equation 11x = 22, we solve for x
11x = 22 ← Divide both sides by 11
x = 2 ← The answer
D. Now that we have x=2, we plug that back in to 5x+2y=22 and solve for y:
5(2)+2y = 22
10 + 2y = 22
2y = 12
y = 6
<u>Therefore, the solution to this problem is x = 2 and y = 6</u>
5x+2x−6=−2x+2
7x−6=−2x+2
7x=−2x+2+6
7x=−2x+8
7x+2x=8
9x=8
x=8/9
Hope this helps, have a blessed day! :-)
