$\frac{1}{5} *(x-4) =5$
$(x-4) = \frac{5}{ \frac{1}{5}}$ (take 1/5 to right hand side, thus it will divide by 5)
$(x-4) = 25$ (simplify)
$x = 29$

Solve the following system of equations by substitution. 3x + 2y = -12 x = 2 A. (2, -9) B. (-2, -3) C. (3, 2) D. (2, 3)

Brilliant_brown [7]

Plugging it in, we get (3)(2)+2y=-12 and 6+2y=-12. Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get -18=2y and dividing by 2 we get y=-9 to get (2, -9) since x is first in the pair
