-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P

Hey there Altagraciasouth :)
Significant Figure Question:
**Question 4162 to 3 SF
Explanation:
We first have to look for the third number in 4162. That would be 62!
So we round 62 to the nearest ten. Which gives us 60!
**Answer: 4160
Hope this helped :)
Answer:D
Step-by-step explanation:
The third angle is 105.
How do I know this?
Add 22 and 53:
22 + 53 = 75
All interior angles on a triangle should add up to 180.
Subtract 75 from 180:
180 - 75 = 105
105 is our answer.
Hope this helps! =)
