ANSWER
The solution is
x=-3,y=-2
EXPLANATION
First equation
3x – 3y = –3
Second Equation:
5x – y = –13
Multiply the second equation by 3 to get:
Third equation:
15x-3y=-39
Subtract the first equation from the third equation:
Divide both sides by 12,
Put x=-3 into the first equation:
Group like terms,
The solution is
x=-3,y=-2
Given equation : n(17+x)=34x−r.
We need to solve it for x.
Distributing n over (17+x) on left side, we get
17n + nx = 34x - r.
Adding r on both sides, we get
17n+r + nx = 34x - r+r.
17n + r + nx = 34x.
Subtracting nx from both sides, we get
17n + r + nx-nx = 34x-nx
17n + r = 34x -nx.
Factoring out gcf x on right side, we get
17x + r = x(34-n).
Dividing both sides by (34-n), we get
