Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X+3y= -5

4x-y= -33

1. X=-3y-5 (move the variable to the other side of the equation)

2. 4(-3y-5)-y= -33 (substitute the value of x)

3. -12y-20-y= -33 (cross multiply)

4. -13y-20= -33 (reduce)

5. -13y= -33+20 (isolate variable)

6. -13y= 13 (addition or subtraction)

7. Y= 13÷(-13) (divide)

8. Y= -1

9. X+3(-1)= -5 (substitute value into other equation)

10. X-3= -5 (multiply)

11. X= -5+3 (move to the other side)

12. X= -2 Y= -1

Naily [24]
0.5 gallons every day

1 weeks = 7 days

0.5 gallons x 7 days = 3.5 gallons every week

1 gallon = 16 cups

3 1/2 gallons = 3 1/2 x 16 = 56 cups

Katrina drinks 56 cups of water every week
