<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -2.</u></h3>

5(2x + 8) = -8x + 4

<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>

10x + 40 = -8x + 4

<em><u>Add 8x to both sides.</u></em>

18x + 40 = 4

<em><u>Subtract 40 from both sides.</u></em>

18x = -36

<em><u>Divide both sides by 18</u></em>

x = -2

I need help with this one too

Hey there! :)

Answer:

y = 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set both of the equations equal:

5x - 9 = x² - 3x + 7

Rearrange the equation:

0 = x² - 3x - 5x  + 9  + 7

Combine like terms:

0 = x² - 8x + 16

Factor:

0 = (x -4)²

Solve for x:

0 = x - 4

x = 4.

Plug this into an equation to solve for 'y':

y = 5(4) - 9

y = 20 - 9

y = 11.
