So in order to use the substitution method, you rearrange one to have a variable isolated, so i isolated y. Then you plug in and solve for the other variable, then plug in that to an equation to find the remaining variable.

7x + 9y = - 27_________eq1
3x - y = 3__________eq2
Multiply eq 2 by 9 and then add the resulting eq with eq1.

eq2 x 9 gives us   27x - 9y = 27___________eq3
 
add eq3 with eq1 we get.
34x = 0.
where x=0/34
x=0.
substitute x into any of the above equations to get y.
substitute x into eq1. we get:
7(0) + 9y =-27
9y = -27
y= -27/9
y = -3.

2. Given: -2x =4y +62(2y+3) =3x -5What is the solution (x,y)?I
Andrews [41]

this is a 2x2 system of equations.

Let:

-2x = 4y + 6 (1)

and

2(2y+3) = 3x - 5 (2)

Let's rewrite (1) as:

2x + 4y = -6 (1)

and (2) as:

3x - 4y = 11 (2)

Now, from (1)

Let's solve for x:

2x + 4y = -6

Subtract 4y from both sides:

2x + 4y - 4y = -6 - 4y

2x = -6 - 4y

Divide both sides by 2:

2x/2 = (-6 - 4y)/2

x = -3 - 2y (3)

Replacing (3) into (2)

3x - 4y = 11

3(-3 - 2y) - 4y = 11

Using distributive property:

-9 - 6y - 4y = 11

Add like terms:

-10y - 9 = 11

Add 9 to both sides:

-10y - 9 + 9 = 11 + 9

-10y = 20

Divide both sides by -10:

(-10y)/-10 = 20/-10

y = -2

Finally, replace the value of y into (3)

x = -3 - 2y

x = -3 - 2(-2)

x = -3 + 4

x = 1

Therefore the solution is :

x= 1 and y=-2

(x,y) = (1,-2)

<1 and <2 form a linear pair. The measure of <1 = (2x+8) and the measure of <2 = (8x + 22). What is the measure of &
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Since the given problem states that the two angles, angle 1 and angle 2 form a linear pair, this means that they form a 180° line, so that:

measure angle 1 + measure angle 2 = 180°

Since measure of angle 2 is six more than twice the measure of angle 1, therefore:

measure angle 2 = 2 (measure angle 1) + 6

hence, substituting this into the first equation:

measure angle 1 + 2 (measure angle 1) + 6 = 180

3 (measure angle 1) = 174

measure angle 1 = 58°

Therefore,

measure angle 2 = 2 (measure angle 1) + 6

measure angle 2 = 2 (58°) + 6

measure angle 2 = 122*
