Answer:
-8/7 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 x+1
----- = -----------
12 x+2
Using cross products
-2 (x+2) = 12 (x+1)
Distribute
-2x -4 = 12x+12
Add 2x to each side
-2x+2x -4 = 12x+2x+12
-4 = 14x +12
Subtract 12 from each side
-4-12 = 14x
-16 = 14x
Divide each side by 14
-16/14 =14x/14
-8/7 =x
Answer:(x,y)=(8,18)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5x-2y=4-------1
Second Equation
-2x+y=2-----2
Now multiply equation 2 by 2 and it to equation 1
5x-4x+0=8
x=8
substitute it in equation 1

36=2y
y=18
Therefore
(x,y)=(8,18)
