Answer:

The statement is true

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the proportion

$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}$

we know that

To solve the proportion multiply in cross

$(a)(d)=(b)(c)$

$ad=bc$

therefore

The statement is true

4x + 12 = -7y -y + 12 = 4x Solve with elimination

statuscvo [17]

Take the second equation and flip it around so the y on the left ends up on the right and the 4x on the right ends up on the left. This makes all negatives positive and all positives negative. -4x + 12 = y

Then add the first equation to the second equation
4x +12 = -7y
-4x + 12 = y this eliminates the x's
24 = - 6y then divide by - 6
- 6 - 6
- 4 = y

So if you know that y = negative 4, you can substitute into either equation. I pick the second one because I am a lazy person.
-y + 12 = 4 x
-(-4) + 12 = 4 x combine your numbers
 16 = 4 x then divide by 4
 4 = x
So your solution is: x = 4 and y = -4 or this is also written (4, -4)

Does that work for you?
