Answer:
5x + 2x.....combine like terms..... = 7x
5x + 2x....subbing in 1 7x - 1....subbing in 1
5(1) + 2(1) = 5 + 2 = 7 7(1) - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6
5x + 2x...subbing in 2 7x - 1...subbing in 2
5(2) + 2(2) = 10 + 4 = 14 7(2) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13
5x + 2x...subbing in 3 7x - 1...subbing in 3
5(3) + 2(3) = 15 + 6 = 21 7(3) - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20
5x + 2x...subbing in 4 7x - 1....subbing in 4
5(4) + 2(4) = 20 + 8 = 28 7(4) - 1 = 28 - 1 = 27
5x + 2x...subbing in 5 7x - 1...subbing in 5
5(5) + 2(5) = 25 + 10 = 35 7(5) - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34
5x + 2x result values are 1 more then 7x - 1 result values
there are no values that will make the 2 expressions equal....
because 5x + 2x = 7x......and the other one is 7x - 1......so the 7x - 1 values will always be 1 number less...because ur subtracting one

Answer:
14 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.
<h3>Solution</h3>
x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation
7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify
21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides
14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5
14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.

<em>Additional comment</em>
There are many ways to solve a system of two linear equations. The attachments shows a matrix solution using a suitable calculator. It tells us that x=6 and y=14, as we found above.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 72
Step-by-step explanation:
These angles are complementary so they add up to 90:
x + 18 = 90
x = 90 - 18
x = 72
