Answer:

(-2 ,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Rewrite first equation

x = 4 - 2y

-2x + y = 7

Step 2: Substitution

-2(4 - 2y) + y = 7

Step 3: Solve y

-8 + 4y + y = 7

-8 + 5y = 7

5y = 15

y = 3

Step 3: Plug in y to find x

x + 2(3) = 4

x + 6 = 4

x = -2

DENIUS [597]

The number of situps form an AP with first term (a) = 17 and common difference (d) = 4

Tn = a + (n - 1)d
T12 = 17 + (12 - 1) x 4 = 17 + 11(4) = 17 + 44 = 61

Therefore, she will do 61 situps on day 12.

How do I solve this problem??

choli [55]

They're the same like integers.
First you should interpret it.
For example:
a. -3x + 8x is the same like -3 + 8. You just add x.
Which is 5x.
