Answer:
x = -5
y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply the top equation by negative 2, you can add it to the bottom equation and cancel out the x:
-2(-x + 5y = -20) --> 2x - 10y = 40
Add this to the bottom equation top to bottom:
2x - 10y = 40
-2x + 4y = -10
You get:
-6y = 30
Then solve for y:
y = -5
Plug this back in for either equation and solve for x:
-x + 5(-5) = -20
-x -25 = -20
-x = 5
x = -5
Your answers are:
x = -5
y = -5
Answer:what it is
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value is how far away a number is from zero on the number line so -32 and 32 have the same absolute value and for number 2 i agree necause 30 is closer to zero than 32

Answer:
top down: ∞, 0, 1, 0, ∞
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation will have infinite solutions when the left side and right side simplify to the same expression. This is the case for the first and last expressions listed.
2(x -5) = 2(x -5) . . . . expressions are already identical
x +2(x -5) = 3(x -2) -4 ⇒ 3x -10 = 3x -10 . . . the same simplified expression
__
The equation will have no solutions when the x-coefficients are the same, but there are different added constants.
5(x +4) = 5(x -6) ⇒ x +4 = x -6 . . . not true for any x
4(x -2) = 4(x +2) ⇒ x -2 = x +2 . . . not true for any x
__
The equation will have one solution when coefficients of x are different.
5(x +4) = 3(x -6) ⇒ 2x = -38 ⇒ x = -19
