Plug in the x value from the second equation
3(-y+2)+2y=12
use distributive property.
-3y+6+2y=12
since the y values are in the same side of the = sign, just put them together.
-y+6=12
subtract 6 from 6 and 12.
-y=6
since the equation has a negative y, divide what is left by -1.
y= -6.
that is the y value. now plug that in to the first equation.
3x+2(-6)=12
multiply.
3x-12=12add 12 to both 12s
3x=24
divide.
x=8.

the ordered pair is (8, -6), and the x value is 8.

<u>ANSWER</u>

A. (4,12)

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

The equations are:

10x +2y = 64...(1)

and

3x - 4y = -36...(2)

To eliminate a variable we make the coefficients of that variable the same in both equations.

It is easier to eliminate x.

We multiply the first equation by 2 to get:

20x + 4y = 128...(3)

We add equations (2) and (3).

3x + 20x + 4y - 4y =  - 36 + 128

23x = 92

Divide both sides by 23

\frac{23x}{23}  =  \frac{92}{23}

x = 4

Put x=4 into equation (1).

10(4)+2y = 64

40+2y = 64

2y = 64 - 40

2y = 24

\frac{2y}{2}  =  \frac{24}{2}

y = 12

The solution is (4,12)

Answer:

X = V/(YZ)

Step-by-step explanation:

V=XYZ

Division property of equality

V/(YZ) = X

Symmetric property of equality

X= V/(YZ)
