Answer:
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
opening the bracket on the LHS, we have
-8x-40= -3x+x-7-3
-8x-40= -2x-10
collecting like terms
-8x+2x= -10+40
-6x= 30
divide both sides by -6
x= -5
I don’t know what the answer is I wish I could help
Standard I believe tell me if I’m wrong
Answer:
y=-1
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
7x+2y=19-----(1)
7x+8y=13------(2)
(1)-(2)
(7x+2y)-(7x+8y)=19-13
7x+2y-7x-8y=6
+2y-8y=6
-6y=6
y=-1
by substitute in (1)
7x+2*(-1)=19
7x-2=19
7x=19+2
7x=21
x=21/3
x=3
