- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = -8x
4x - y = 3
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 4x - (-8x) = 3
- Simplify: 4x + 8x = 3
- Combine like terms: 12x = 3
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 3/12
- Simplify: x = 1/4
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define equation: y = -8x
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: y = -8(1/4)
- Multiply: y = -2
Answer: 10
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
varies directly means: 
Step 1: solve for k ⇒ 
Step 2: plug in the given value and k to solve for the missing value: 
42(5) = 21(x)
2(5) = x
10 = x
