Ur gonna have to pick an equation and solve for a variable.
2x - 2y = 6
2x = 2y + 6 ...divide everything by 2 because u want x by itself
x = y + 3
now we sub y + 3 in for x in the other equation
14x - 2y = 78
14(y + 3) - 2y = 78...distribute thru the parenthesis
14y + 42 - 2y = 78...subtract 42 from both sides, cancelling the 42 on the left
-42 -42
-----------------------
14y - 2y = 36 ...simplify
12y = 36...divide by 12 on both sides, cancelling out the 12 on the left
y = 36/12
y = 3
now , we already know that x = y + 3...and we know y = 3...so sub in 3 for y and solve for x
x = y + 3
x = 3 + 3
x = 6
solution is (6,3)
it is always a good idea to check ur answer by subbing it into one or both of the equations to see if it is correct
2x - 2y = 6......(6,3)...x = 6 and y = 3
2(6) - 2(3) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)
so yes, ur solution is (6,3)
step-by-step.

+10=15
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3
x+10=15
Step 2: Subtract 10 from both sides.

x+10−10=15−10

x=5
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 3.

x=15
Answer:
x=15
If you do not mind me asking, what did Seth write? Us helpers cannot answer it if we do not have the full question. I apologize if this seems rude.
Answer:the answer is c I literally just took this lol can I get brainliest pls
Step-by-step explanation:it would be helpful and my first
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 4 = - 2 ( add 4 to both sides )
x = 2 ( multiply both sides by 6 to clear the fraction )
5x = 12 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x =
= 2
→ A
