If solving for x:
Because both equations are equal to Y, you can set both equations equal to each other:
5x+1=4x+8
Then it's a matter of simplification (subtract the 4x to the left side and subtract the 1 over to the right):
x=7
If solving for Y:
Plug x=7 into either equation and solve:
Y=4(7)+8
Y=36
This one is easy.
<span>–8.6 = –4.1 + x
</span>
So, what you have to do is add 4.1 on both sides.
You do this because you want to get X alone. when you do,
-8.6+4.1=-4.5
X=-4.5
The answer is B
C and make sure next time make the pic look cleaer
Answer is 1/5 simplified.
8X9 is 72 and 360.
360/72 is 5.
1/5
