Would it be the hundreds?
This will be solved by solving for x first. Firstly you multiply the top equation by 2 and the bottom by -3. This will change both equation to (top)-10x+6y=-54 and (bottom) 27x-6y=-57. Now when you add the factors the y-values cancel out leaving you with; 17x=-3. now you have to divide by 17 on both sides giving you x=-0.17647058823 (not the prettiest solution but you can round if you want to). After that pick an equation to solve for y (I'm picking the top); the equation will be 5(-0.17647058823)+3y=-27. multiply the negative decimal and 5 to get -0.88235294117 (again not the prettiest). Add that to both sides which will give you 3y=-26.1176470588. After this divide both sides by 3 which will give you y=-8.70588235294. Your answer is (-0.17647058823,-8.70588235294) You can divide to the second or third decimal if needed-----remember that as you round from left to right on a decimal if it's below five you leave it and if it's above 5 then round up 1. I hope this help :)
The first part of the second line, she left the -5 there. The correct work and solution should be this:
5(2x-1)-3x=5x+9
<span><span>7x</span>−5</span>=<span><span>5x</span>+<span>9
</span></span>2x-5=9
2x=14
x=7
