4x - y = 5 --> 4x = y + 5
substitute
4x + 4y = -4
(y + 5) + 4y = -4
5y + 5 = -4
5y = -9
y = -1.8
solve x
4x = y + 5 = -1.8 + 5 = 3.2
x = 3.2/4 = 0.8
Answer:
<h2><em><u>x = 4</u></em></h2>
Explanation:
10 + 6x + 2x - 7 = 35
- Add Similar Elements: 6x + 2x = 8x
10 + 8x - 7 = 35
8x + 10 - 7 = 35
8x + 3 = 35
- Subtract 3 From Both Sides
8x + 3 - 3 = 35 - 3
8x = 32
8x / 8 = 32 / 8
<h2><u><em>x = 4</em></u></h2>
It is a mixed number because mixed mumbers have higher numerator than the denominator
