I got 3.825
your equation would be
(2x-1)(x+7)=72
when you distribute youd get
2x^2 +13x -7 =72
move the 72 over giving you
2x^2 +13x -79=0
i used the quadratic formula and the answer would be 3.825 because a negative answer wouldn’t make sense in this situation
Steps:
1. Multiply the first line by 3 and the second by 2
3(3x + 2y= 4)
2(8x -3y=-6)
2. New lines are
9x + 6y= 12
16x + -6y=-12
3. Now add/subtract them
25x + 0= 0
25x=0
4. Divide by 25
X=0
5. To find y, substitute the 0 in the x in one of the equations
9x + 6y= 12
9(0) + 6y= 12
6y= 12
6. Divide by 6, your Y=2
7. X=0, Y=2
