Answer:

y = - 2, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove x and solve for y

2x - 2x - 5y - y = 12

-6y = 12

y = - 2

Substitute y back into the equation

-2 + 2x = 2

2x = 4

x = 2

2x+y=2
2x-5y=14
Subtract the two equation
6y= -12
Y= - 2
Put y= -2 in any equation
2x-2=2
2x=4
X=2

Answer:

At the end of the party 5.5 gallons or 88 cups of punch will be leftover.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are 20 guest at a party.

Now, to find the quantity of punch that will be leftover.

Number of guests = 20.

Total gallons of punch = 8.

Now, using conversion factor we change gallons into cups:

1 gallon = 16 cup.

So, 8 gallons = 16 × 8 = 128 cups.

Thus, total cups of punch = 128.

Total number of cups each guest will drink = 2.

Now, to get total number of cups the 20 guests will drink by multiplying:

$20\times 2$

$=40\ cups.$

Total number of cups the 20 guests will drink = 40.

So, to get the leftover punch we subtract the total number of cups the 20 guests will drink from total cups of punch:

$128-40\\\\=88\ cups.$

So, 88 cups = $88\div 16=5.5\ gallons.$

Therefore, at the end of the party 5.5 gallons or 88 cups of punch will be leftover.

Subtract (4x2 - x + 6) from (3x2 + 5x - 8).

bearhunter [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

$(4x^2-x+6)-(3x^2+5x-8)=4x^2-x+6-3x^2-5x+8$

By simplifying the right side of the equation, we come up with

$x^2+6x-14$ , or D
