How to work -1x-2y=-13 x-2y=11 equation by substitution

1 answer:

5 0

Well if you're wanting to use substitution, you first have to end up with one term on either side of the equation. Use the second one as it's easiest.

So: x-2y=11, so find -2y as there is a -2y in the first equation.
then that becomes -2y=11-x. then sub that into equation 1, and you get:

-x+11-x=-13, which equals to -2x+11=-13, which is -2x=-24, so therefore

x=12. then chuck the x into any of the equations to find what y equals.

hope this helps!

Josephine wants to put a wallpaper border around the ceiling of her room. The dimensions are 7 ft and 3 inches and 8 feet and 3

Ilya [14]

Answer:
372inches or 31feet
How to:
7feet and three inches is equal to 87 inches and 8ft and 3 inches is equal to 99 inches. Then you know that both sides have to be multiplied by two because there are four sides in the room. Meaning you have 174in and 198in. Then you add those together to get your answer which is 372. To get back to feet just divide by twelve.
