Answer: Your answer is going to be D. (10, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting off the equation you want to get rid of either x or y ( I did x first)
Take x+3y=7 and multiply the entire equation by -2 -- -2(x+3y=7)
You get -2x-6y=-14 and then add the two equations together
-2x-6y=-14
2x-4y=24 -- You get -10y = 10
y = -1
You can take the -1 and plug it back into either equation.. ( I did x+3y=7)
x+3(-1)=7 -- x-3=7 -- Add the 3 to get the 10 ( x = 10 )
So you have x = 10 & y = -1
(10,-1)
Since y must equal both 3x+2 and x-4, we deduce that 3x+2 and x-4 must equal each other. So, we have
7 and 10 is half
so we expect the people come to wedding half of 120÷2=60 people

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the new fraction is 8/12 I will show how to find it.
Let's say the original denominator is x, then the numerator is x-4, so we have (x-4)/x.
Then it says f we add 4 to both, so now we have x/(x+4) this equals 8/12. Now, keep in mind -4 cannot be an answer because it would make x/(x+4) be divided by 0 which wouldn't exist.
Now we just use algebra.
x/(x+4) = 8/12
12x = 8(x+4)
12x = 8x + 32
4x = 32
x = 8
So the original fraction (x-4)/x = (8-4)/8 = 4/8
