Answer:

x = -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - y = -7

4x + 2y = – 14

Multiply the first equation by 2

2(5x - y) = 2*-7

10x -2y = -14

Add this to the second equation to eliminate y

10x -2y = -14

4x + 2y = – 14

---------------------------

14x = -28

Divide by 14

14x/14 = -28/14

x = -2

Now find y

4x+2y = -14

4*-2 +2y = -14

-8+2y = -14

Add 8 to each side

2y = -6

Divide by 2

2y/2 = -6/2

y = -3

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ x=-2, \ y=-3 \  \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

<u>I assume that you want to solve this system of two equations</u>

   (1) 5x - y  = -7

   (2) 4x + 2y = -14

We will multiply (1) by 2 and add to (2) so that we can eliminate the terms in y

2*(1)+(2) gives

   10x - 2y + 4x + 2y = -7*2 -14 = -14 - 14 = -28

   <=>

   14x = - 28 we can divide by 14 both parts

   x = -28/14 = -2

and then we replace x in (1)

   5*(-2)-y=-7

   -10-y=-7 add 7

   -10-y+7=0

   -3-y=0 add y

   -3 = y

which is equivalent to y = -3

Geometry help what is it will give brainliest
Lapatulllka [165]
For this problem, we can say that corresponding angles are congruent, or the same, this also means that their angle measures have to be the same. Then, our equations for our angles will be vertical angles, which means that they must equal each other. So we would then write our equation as 3x+20=4x+10 or 4x+10=3x+20. Then, to combine like terms, we will subtract 3x from both sides, resulting in x+10=20. Then we will subtract 10 from both sides, resulting in x=10.

Manuela solved the equation 3−2|0.5x 1.5|=2 for one solution. her work is shown below. 3−2|0.5x 1.5|=2 −2|0.5x 1.5|=−1 |0.5x 1.5
irakobra [83]

The other solution to the absolute value equation 3 − 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2 is x = -4

<h3>How to determine the solution?</h3>

The equation is given as:

3 − 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2

Subtract 3 from both sides

-2|0.5x + 1.5| = -1

Divide both sides by -2

|0.5x + 1.5| = 0.5

Expand the equation

0.5x + 1.5 = 0.5 or 0.5x + 1.5 = -0.5

Subtract 1.5 from both sides

0.5x = -1 or 0.5x = -2

Divide both sides by 0.5

x = -2 or x = -4

Hence, the other solution to the absolute value equation 3 − 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2 is x = -4

How many times will the digit "3" appear if we write all whole numbers from 1-9999?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

4000

Step-by-step explanation:

from 1 - 1000 = 300

1's    = 100

10's  = 100

100's = 100

1000's = 0

300 * 10 = 3000

then add in all the 3000's (ie 3001,3002, etc ) that adds one more thousand

3000 + 1000 = 4000
