Jane = x years

Tom = x+8

*5 Years Ago

Jane= x-5

Tom= (x+8)-5=>x+3---------------------------
x+3=3(x-5)<span>x+3=3x-15
3x-x=18
2x=18
x=9 
Jane = 9 years
Tome = 9+8 = 17 years</span>

Solve the system below using substitution write your final answer as a coordinate point
Mademuasel [1]

(3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 4

-x + 3y = -9

-x + 3 (-2x + 4) = -9

-x + -6x + 12 = -9

-7x = - 9 – 12

-7x = - 21

X = 3

We substitute x with 3 to evaluate y;

-3 + 3y = -9

3y = -6

y = -2

Elimination Method;

y = -2x + 4

-x + 3y = -9

We arrange the equations for substitution;

2x + y = 4

-x + 3y = -9

We multiply the first equation with 3 so we can substract one variable to zero;

3 (2x + y = 4)

= 6x + 3y = 12

Then we subtract the two;

6x + 3y = 12

-x + 3y = -9

7x = 21

x = 3

We evaluate y by substitution x with 3 in one of the equation;

-x + 3y = -9

-3 + 3y = -9

3y = -6

y = -2

The final answer expressed as a coordinate point is;

(3, -2)

Does 5x=9+2x have one solution
amid [387]

Answer:

Yes, x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Subtract 2x from each side

5x=2x+9

-2x -2x

Step 2. Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=9/3

x = 3
