For this one you want to cancel out the x-terms.
Multiply top equation by -2
---> -2x -10y = 6
---> 2x +7y = 3
Add them together
---> -3y = 9
Solve for y ...

Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for x, we must isolate x on one side of the equation.
x+3x+5=21
First, combine like terms. x and 3x are both terms with variables, and can be combined.
(x+3x) + 5=21
4x + 5=21
5 is being added to 4x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.
4x+5-5= 21-5
4x= 16
x is being multiplied by 4. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 4.
4x/4=16/4
x= 16/4
x=4
Let's check our solution. Plug 4 in for x and solve.
x+3x+5=21
4+3(4)+5=21
4+12+5=21
16+5=21
21=21
This solution checks out, so we know our answer is correct.
x is equal to 4, x=4.
Answer:
Eight times ten plus six times one plus two times one-tenth plus seven times one-thousandth.
Step-by-step explanation:
(8 x 10) = eight times ten
(6 x 1) = six times one
(2 x 0.1) = two times one-tenth
(7 x 0.001) = seven times one-thousandth
I am not always the best with the equations to words stuff, so please comment if I am wrong!
