Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.

Substitution is where we first Isolate one of the unknowns, express it in terms of the other unknown, and replace the isolated unknown with the other unknown in another equation. So that each time we only need to deal with one unknown. I think you'll get a better idea here:

First name these 2 equations with 1 and 2.
4x + 5y = 7 (1)
y = 3x + 9 (2)

Since y is already isolated in (2), so we can skip the isolation step and continue to substitute.

Substitute (2) into (1).
4x + 5(3x+9) = 7

Expand.
4x + 15x + 45 = 7

Group.
19x + 45 = 7

Shift +45 to the other side and turn it into -45.

19x = 7 - 45
19x = -38

Shift x19 to the other side, turn it into /19.
X = - 38/19
X = - 2

Now we solved x already, we can just substitute x= - 2 back to equation (2).

y = 3(-2) + 9
y = - 6 + 9
y = 3

So, the answers are
x = - 2
y = 3

What is the quotient and the remainder for <br> 52 divided by 8
Marianna [84]
52/8 = 6 
6*8 = 48
52-48 = 4

So 52 = 6*8+4

The quotient is 6, the remainder is 4.

PLEASE HELP ASAP! Will give brainliest if you explain
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Well, the best way to solve this would involve the Pythagorean theorem. 
First, take the length of the hypotenuse (the string in this case) and square it. Do the same to the side length we are given (the kites height above the ground).
We then subtract the squared height from the squared hypotenuse. We should be left with 1,781m.
All we have to do now is find the square root of 1,781m.

Your answer for b is 42.20189569m.

Factor.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Are these the only choices?

A would equal 5x^2-32xi+64

B would equal 25x^2-6561

c would equal 25x^2+1024

D would equal 64x^2+25

If there is an option for (5x+8i)(5x-8i) this would be the answer
