<em><u>Question:</u></em>

The equations in this system were added to solve for x. What is the value of x? -2x+y=8 5x-y=-5 3x=3

Options:

x = negative 3

x = negative 1

x = 1

x = 3

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

The value of x is 1

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>

-2x + y = 8 ------- eqn 1

5x - y = -5 ------- eqn 2

The above equations are added to solve for "x"

Add eqn 1 and eqn 2

-2x + y + 5x - y = 8 - 5

Combine the like terms

-2x + 5x + y - y = 3

Add the like terms

3x + 0 = 3

3x = 3

Divide both sides of equation by 3

x = 1

Thus the value of x is 1

Answer:

<h2>There remains 7/6 of pie.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The remaining parts are 1/3 of one pie and 5/6 of the other pie.

To find how much pie is remaining, we just need to sum those fractions.

\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}=\frac{6+15}{18} =\frac{21}{18} =\frac{7}{6}

Therefore, there remains 7/6 of pie. They ate just 1/6.

True or False:<br> There are an infinite number of answers for this equation:<br> 63 - X = 34
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: No, the answer is 29, this is false.

Step-by-step explanation: 63-x=34

subtract 63 from both sides

34-63= -29

-x=-29

divide both sides by the negative and you get 29

plug in 29 for x, 63-29=34
