X + y = 47
x = 2y + 2

2y + 2 + y = 47
3y + 2 = 47
3y = 47 - 2
3y = 45
y = 45/3
y = 15

x = 2y + 2
x = 2(15) + 2
x = 30 + 2
x = 32

ur numbers are 15 and 32

Solve the system by substitution.<br> y = 8x<br> y=10x – 4<br> Submit Answer<br> How
Goshia [24]

Answer:

(2,16)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=8x-----------(i)

y= 10x-4---------(ii)

Substituting the value of y=8x in equation (ii)

8x=10x-4

8x-10x=-4

-2x= -4

x=2

Now, substituting the value of x= 2 in equation (i)

y=8x=8(2)=16

Solution of the system is (2,16)

vivado [14]

Answer:

12 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keiths dog will need to lose 15 pounds to get down to 75 pounds. If he loses 1.25 pounds per week, it will take 12 weeks to get down to 75 pounds. To figure this out, you would use the equation:

90 - 75 = 15

15 / 1.25 = 12

That is how you would get 12 weeks.
