Solve by substitution. Show each step of your work.
zaharov [31]

5x + y = 15

y = -5x + 15

Substituting y= -5x+15 from first equation into second equation:

3x + 2y = 16

3x + 2·(-5x + 15) = 16

3x - 10x + 30 = 16

-7x + 30 = 16

7x = 30 - 16 = 14

x = 2

Substituting x=2 into the first equation:

5x + y = 15

5(2) + y = 15

10 + y = 15

y = 15 - 10

y = 5

So your final answers are x=2 and y=5.

How to simplify please help
Luda [366]

Okay, the image is a little tough to see, but I believe it looks something like this:

(5² -10 / 17 - 3 * 4) -1

The first step [remember PEMDAS] is parentheses

Next comes Exponents:

(25 - 10 / 17 - 3 * 4) -1

Then Multiplication:

(25 - 10 / 17 - 12) - 1

Then Division [which we can't do yet since it isn't fully simplified], so we skip to Addition... nothing again, then subtraction.

(15 / 5) - 1

Then we can divide:

(3) - 1

Then subtract!

2

The answer to your problem is 2.

Hope that helps!

Consider the equation: 3(–4n – 9) = 21
hram777 [196]

Answer: N=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP

1

:

STEP

2

:

Pulling out like terms

2.1     Pull out like factors :

  -4n - 9  =   -1 • (4n + 9)

Equation at the end of step

2

:

 -3 • (4n + 9) -  21  = 0

STEP

3

:

STEP

4

:

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  -12n - 48  =   -12 • (n + 4)

Equation at the end of step

4

:

 -12 • (n + 4)  = 0

STEP

5

:

Equations which are never true:

5.1      Solve :    -12   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.2      Solve  :    n+4 = 0

Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :

                     n = -4

One solution was found :

n = -4
