Givens
x + y = 3
x =6 - 4y
Solution
Use the top equation to substitute for x in the second equation.
x = 3 - y
Put this result into the second given equation and solve for y
3 - y = 6 - 4y Add 4y to both sides.
3 - y + 4y = 6 Combine on the left
3 + 3y = 6 Subtract 3 from both sides
3 - 3 + 3y = 6 - 3 Combine
3y = 3 Divide by 3
3y/3 = 3/3 Combine
y = 1
=========================
x + y = 3 but y = 1
x + 1 = 3 Subtract 1 from both sides.
x + 1 - 1 =3 - 1
x = 2
Answer
x = 2
y = 1
Answer:
2 and 5 hundredths
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - 1 = 2
14 hundredths - 9 hundredths = 5 hundredths
hence you get 2 and 5 hundredths
Hi! So, the one that doesn't belong is a) y = 4x.
I think that this doesn't belong because every other option has a number after the variable (I forget the exact term for it but it's like +7, +4, and -1 for the rest of the options)
Please let me know how I can further help you :)
