Solve the system of linear equations with substitution;

x+4y=14   Equation 1
<span> 3x+7y=22 Equation 2

Solve Equation 1 for x 

x + 4y = 14     Isolate the variable by moving the second variable to the other side using the inverse operation which in this case is subtraction. So.....
x + 4y =  14
 <span>  -  4y = -4y
</span> x        = 14 - 4y

Now insert your answer above into Equation 2.

3x + 7y = 22
3(14 -4y) + 7y = 22           Now distribute to eliminate parenthesis
42 - 12y + 7y = 22            

 42 - 5y = 22                      Combine like terms and remember the 12 is  
-42         -42                       technically negative
      -5y  =  -20                   Isolate the variable which in this case we divide
   -5y/-5 =  -20/-5
       y =  4

Going back to Equation 1. Insert the know variable to solve for x.

x+4y=14   Equation 1

x + 4(4) = 14
x + 16 = 14          Isolate the variable by subtracting 16 from both sides
  - 16    -16
x = -2

The solution is an ordered pair (x,y) ........ (-2, 4).

Check your work by inserting the ordered pair into either of the equations.

x+4y=14   Equation 1

-2 + 4(4) = 14
-2 + 16 = 14
        14 = 14

<span>3x+7y=22 Equation 2

3(-2) + 7(4) = 22
-6 + 28 = 22
       22 = 22</span>

</span>

How much should you invest at 4% simple interest in order to earn $50 interest in 6 months
LenaWriter [7]
Simple interest formula
Interest = Pit = $50
P=principal (initial investment)
i=annual interest rate = 0.04
t=time in years = 6 months = 0.5 years

Substitute values,
$50 = P*0.04*0.5 
Solve for P
P=$50/(0.04*0.5)=$2500

After 14 pay periods, you will have saved
.. 14*$416.61 = $5832.54

This is more than your estimated trip requirement.

Help plzzzzzzzzz????? asapp

The two angles are a linear pair.
(Explanations down below!)

Linear pair angles must add up to 180 degrees. You can tell that the two angles add up to 180 degrees because they form a straight line (which is 180 degrees).

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. The two angles are not complementary because they do not form a 90 degree angle (right triangle, square in corner, like a L shape).

Vertical angles are opposite each other and are equal to one another. These angles are adjacent to each other and do not look similar.
