Answer:

y = 7/2

x = -1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y = 3-----------eqn 1

4x - y = -5----------eqn 2

Let's pick eqn 1

4x + y = 3

Let's make y the subject of the formula

y = 3 -4x

Since y = 3 - 4x, substitute the value of y into eqn 2

4x - ( 3 - 4x) = -5

Using the - to open the bracket

4x - 3 + 4x = -5

16x - 3 = -5

16x = -5 + 3

16x = -2

Divide through by 16 to get the value of x

16x/ 16 = -2/16

x = -1/8

Since we've gotten the value for x, find y using eqn 1

4x + y = 3

4(-1/8) + y = 3

-4/8 + y = 3

y = 3 + 4/8

LCM is 8

y = 24 + 4 / 8

y = 28/8 ( using 4 to divide)

y = 7/2

x = -1/8

y = 7/2

What is the difference between an approximate and an exact number?
Aleks [24]

Answer:

An approximate number is a close number that is only off by x number of places (Like a rounded number). An exact number is exactly correct. For example:

3 - 1.5 is approximately 2, but is exactly 1.5.

Solve 9-3(x+4)=2(x-3)-8<br> A)3<br> B)2.5<br> C)-2.5<br> D)-4
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

x=11/5, or x=2.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

9-3(x+4)=2(x-3)-8

9-3x-12=2x-6-8

9-12-3x=2x-14

-3-3x=2x-14

-3-3x-2x=-14

-3-5x=-14

5x=-3-(-14)

5x=-3+14

5x=11

x=11/5

x=2.2
