Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

x=14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Group like terms

2x+8x+7=35

Add similar elements: 2x+8x=10x

10x+7=35

Subtract 7 from both sides:

10x+7−7=35−7

Simplify

10x=28

Divide both sides by 10

10x/10 =28/10

Simplify:

x=14/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+y=14

x-2y=8

32-8y+8-2y=14

40-10y=14

26=10y

y=2.6 , work out 4x+2.6=14 to get x
