X= -157 to get that first you need to get 4×88 - 4 = 34 -2x then you do 352 - 4 = 34 - 2x after that do 348 = 34 - 2x then right 2X = 34 - 348 then the last step you do is 2x = -134
The variable expression is x(shirt cost) + 8. The answer is x+8.
Answer:
=
−
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms
Divide both sides of the equation by the same term
Simplify
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 13y = 232
12x + 7y = 218
For each choice:
a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have
- 65x - 169y = - 3016
84x + 49y = 1526
Can not eliminate x and y.
b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have
35x + 91 y = 1624
156x + 91y = 2834
Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD.
<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>
<em></em>
c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.
-60x - 156y = - 2784
60x + 35y = 1090
The answer is YES
d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.
25x + 65y = 1160
144x + 84y = 2616
Can not eliminate x and y
The final answer is C
