Answer:(-6,-2)

Explanation:
The elimination method calls for two variables that cancel each other out. 
In this circumstance, you already have 3y and -3y.

First, make the orders of the equations the same. I got the x's to the same side on each equation.
This left me with:
x=3y        2x=3y-6.
Now, subtract the first equation from the second one to get x=-6.
That's the first part of the solution. For the y, you can just plug x into one of the equations and solve. I'll use the first one. 
-6-3y=0.    
Now get the ys to one side: -6=3y. Divide both sides by 3 to get y= -2.
Now that you have an x and a y coordinate, your solution is (-6,-2).

To check: plug both values in for their variables into each equation.
3(-2)-6=2(-6)   solve to get... -12=-12, which is true, meaning the solution works for that equation.

-6-3(-2)=0   solve to get... 0=0. The solution works for both equations.

Daniel's tennis team made $582.85 from running the concession stand at a basketball game. The food and drinks cost the team $64.
Flura [38]

Let x be the number of members in Daniel's tennis team.

The amount made = $582.85

Expenses (food and drinks) = $64

Balance remaining for sharing = 582.85 - 64 = $518.85

Amount received by each player = (amount made - Expenses) / Number of members = 518.85/x

What is the solution to this equation:<br> X+7=-8
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

\boxed {x = -15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of x:

x  + 7 = -8

-Subtract both sides by 7:

x + 7 - 7 = -8 - 7

\boxed {x = -15}

So, the value of x is -15.
