There are 3 methods to solve this. elimination substitution and graphing but i am going to use the elimination method.
  x+2y=17
 <u> x-y   =2
</u> 0+3y  =15   ( subtracted down to eliminate the x)( x-x=0, 2y-(-y)=3y, and 17-2=15)
     3y=15    (divide both sides by 3 to solve for y)
      y=5
<u>substitute the y=5 in any of the above equations and solve for x
ie... ( </u>meaning where you find y in the equation, u replace it with a 5)

it will be easier to solve for x in (x-y=2) so i will use that one.
x-(5)=2  ( add 5 on both sides to solve for x)
x=7

When n is a factor of a number, all factors of n are also factors of the number
Eduardwww [97]
This would be True. For example. If your number is 24, and 'n' is 12 ( a factor of 24 )
your factors of 12 (12, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1) are also included in the factors of 24 (which are 24, 12, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1)
