Answer:
x=8 and y=3 (So, yes!)
Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve your system by substitution.
(You can also solve this system by elimination.)
−x+4y=4;−x+3y=1
Step: Solve −x+4y=4 for x:
−x+4y+−4y=4+−4y(Add -4y to both sides)
−x=−4y+4
-x/-1 = -4y+4/-1 (Divide both sides by -1)
x=4y−4
Step: Substitute 4y−4 for x in −x+3y=1:
−x+3y=1
−(4y−4)+3y=1
−y+4=1(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−y+4+−4=1+−4(Add -4 to both sides)
−y=−3
-y/-1 = -3/-1 (Divide both sides by -1)
y=3
Step: Substitute 3 for y in x=4y−4:
=4y−4
x=(4)(3)−4
x=8(Simplify both sides of the equation)
<u>Answer:</u>
x=8 and y=3
10/3 which is the same as 3 1/3
Answer:
y = -1.0
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operations, and =
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
First, add 4y and subtract 14 from both sides:
1y (+4y) + 14 (-14) = -4y (+4y) + 9 (-14)
1y + 4y = 9 - 14
Combine like terms:
5y = -5
Isolate the variable, y. Divide 5 from both sides:
(5y)/5 = (-5)/5
y = -5/5
y = -1
y = -1 is your answer.

A coefficient is a number multiplied by a variable.
In this case, our variable is a.
The coefficient is 12.
(PS: The +5 that isn't being multiplied by a variable is called a constant)
notice, the denominator for each fraction is the same, thus the LCD is just 3.
