Lets start with one of the equations. 

<span>2x+6y=18

</span>Add -6y to both sides.

<span><span><span><span>2x</span>+<span>6y</span></span>+<span>−<span>6y</span></span></span>=<span>18+<span>−<span>6y

</span></span></span></span><span><span>2x</span>=<span><span>−<span>6y</span></span>+18

</span></span>Divide both sides by 2.

<span><span><span>2x</span>2</span>=<span><span><span>−<span>6y</span></span>+18</span>2

</span></span><span>x = <span><span>−<span>3y </span></span>+ 9 <--

Now lets plug this into the other equation.

</span></span>Simplify both sides of the equation.

<span><span><span>3<span>(<span><span>−<span>3y</span></span>+9</span>)</span></span>+<span>2y</span></span>=13

</span><span>Simplify

</span><span><span><span>−<span>7y</span></span>+27</span>=13

</span>Subtract 27 from both sides.

<span><span><span><span>−<span>7y</span></span>+27</span>−27</span>=<span>13−27

</span></span><span><span>−<span>7y</span></span>=<span>−14

</span></span>Divide both sides by -7.

<span><span><span>−<span>7y/</span></span><span>−7 </span></span>= <span><span>−14/</span><span>−7

</span></span></span><span>y=2

</span>Answer:
<span>y=2</span><span>
Now that we figured out the value for y, lets plug it into either equation. 

</span>2x+6(-2)=18<span>

</span>Simplify both sides of the equation.

<span><span><span>2x</span>+<span><span>(6)</span><span>(<span>−2</span>)</span></span></span>=18

</span><span>Simplify

</span><span><span><span>2x</span>−12</span>=18

</span>Add 12 to both sides.

<span><span><span><span>2x</span>−12</span>+12</span>=<span>18+12

</span></span><span><span>2x</span>=30

</span>Divide both sides by 2.

<span><span><span>2x/</span>2 </span>= <span>30/2

</span></span><span>x=<span>15</span></span>
Final answer: 

y = 2 
x = 15

If f(x) = [x] – 5, what is f(8.6)?<br> 3<br> 4<br> 8<br> 9
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The strange thing about the greatest integer function is that the number you are evaluating the function at is not actually the number unless its an integer.  The rule is to round down, ALWAYS, if you are dealing with a value of x that is not an integer.  In other words, you are NOT evaluating the function at 8.6, you have to round down to 8 and evaluate it there.  8 - 5 = 3
