Answer:x=8 and y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 2x-4y=8 and 3x+6y=36

Solve simultaneously

Using elimination method

6x-12y=24

6x+12y=72

To eliminate x

-24y=-48

Divide through by -24

y=2

To get x

Substitute for y in equation 1

2x-4(2)=8

2x=8+8

2x=16

Divide through by x

x=8

Eight years ago, Clyde was 7 years old. Which equation represents Clyde age now?

vichka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Clyde's present age is 7+8, because he has aged 8 years since he was 7.

So, the equation would be C=7+8.

However, that equation isn't listed so you need to move some numbers around.

If you subtract 8 from both sides of the equation C=7+8, you get C-8=7, which is D.

Hope this helps! :)

HOW TO SOLVE 2/5x=-25

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

x = - $\frac{125}{2}$ = - 62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{5}$ x = - 25

Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction

2x = - 125 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - $\frac{125}{2}$ = - 62.5
