The best way to answer this item is to use the Substitution method. Substitute the value of y from the first equation to the y of the second equation such that the second equation becomes,
-4x + 3(x - 4) = -3
Simplifying the equation,
-x = 9
Dividing both sides by -1 gives an answer of,
<em>x = -9</em>
Then, substitute the value of x in the first equation.
y = -9 - 4
<em> y = -13</em>
The answer to this item is letter B.

Answer:
x > 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x > -4 you get this by subtracting 8 from the left side and in turn subtracting 8 from the other side
x > 2 you get this by dividing -2 from both sides
Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)
For this case, we have that by definition, the proportions can be expressed in different ways. Example, if we have a dog and three cats:
75%: It's percentage
0.75: In decimal (75% are cats)
: In fraction. (There are
of cats)
: Using ":" to separate sample values. (For every three cats there is a dog)
Care should be taken with the proportions, always multiplying the numbers in the proportion by the same value.
