First solve for one variable
(I chose bottom equation because it’s easier)
Get y alone: Y = 5x
Now that we have y we can plug y into the top equation
Plug in 5x for y: 2x + 5x = 7
Solve for x: 7x = 7
X = 1
Now plug in the x value into the bottom equation to solve for y
Y = 5(1)
Y= 5
So, x = 1 and y = 5
Answer:
Trish made 2 pans of brownies
Step-by-step explanation:
So essentially 84/12 is 7 pans if Rachel made 5 pans and we know that using subtraction we can easily solve this by subtracting 7 and 5
