Solve simultaneously.

4x - y = 8
6x + y = 2


Multiply top equation by 6, and bottom equation by 4, to eliminate x, so that we can find y.
~
24x - 6y = 48
24x - 4y = 8

Subtract top from bottom to form one equation.
~
-2y = 40
Therefore y is 20.

Put y back in to an equation, such as 4x - y = 8.
~
4x - 20 = 8
4x = 28
x = 7

Answer:

1. -19x

3. 23 -  8x

5. -18x + 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

first: 3x - x = 2x

2x - 22x = -20x

-20x + x = -19x

second one:

8 - (-15) = 23

12x - 20x = -8 x

23 - 8x

third:

-10x - 8x = -18x

3y - y = 2y

-18x + 2y

A magazine surveyed readers and found that 175 of the 200 teenagers included in the survey spend at least two hours per night on
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

It is not accurate because only information from teenagers was used to make the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the correct answer because they only used the data that pertained to their teen readers. The magazine does not only have teen readers, but has many ages. The statement regarding internet use generalizes it to all readers, not just teens, therefore making its claim inaccurate because the scope of inference is not appropriate for the claim that was made.
