Your equation would be 3x + 5x + 7x + 9x = 240
Combine like terms and that would lead you to 24x = 240
Then divide by 24 on both side leaving you with x = 10
Plug in x and your answer would be 30:50:70:90

Solve by elimination 5x-14y=22 -6x+7y=3

Airida [17]

5x - 14y = 22 ⇒ 5x - 14y = 22
-6x + 7y = 3 ⇒ 12x - 14y = -6
 -7x = 28
 -7 -7
 x = -4
 5x - 14y = 22
 5(-4) - 14y = 22
 -20 - 14y = 22
 + 20 + 20
 -14y = 42
 -14 -14
 y = -3
 (x, y) = (-4, -3)
