<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
