Answer: Choice A, x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 9x−(3x+9)=2x−25
2. 9x-3x-9=2x-25
3. 6x-9=2x-25
4. 6x-9=2x-25
-2x -2x
5. 4x-9=-25
+9 +9
6. 4x=-16 (divide both sides by 4)
7. x=-4
Answer:
........the inverse is 2x = y
Answer:
x = - 7, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 7y = - 7 -----> equation 1
- 10x - 7y = 28 -----> equation 2
Add equations 1 & 2,
7x + 7y = - 7
- 10x - 7y = 28
___________
- 3x + 0 = 21
- 3x = 21
x = 21 / - 3
x = - 7
Substitute x = - 7 in equation 1,
7x + 7y = - 7
7y + 7x = - 7
7y + 7 ( - 7 ) = - 7
7y - 49 = - 7
7y = - 7 + 49
7y = 42
y = 42 / 7
y = 6
