Hope this helps!
First simplify inside parenthasees
8-6x+12
-6x+8+12
-6x+20
distributive poproty
a(b+c)=ab+ac
1/4(-6x+20)=-6x/4+20/4=
-3/2x+5
Answer:
Y=7+3x, x=-3, y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-5y=1. Equation 1
3x-y=-7. Equation 2
-y=-7-3x isolate for y in equation 2
y=7+3x multiplied by -1 to get positive y
3x-5(7+3x)=1 substitute y value of equation 2 (7+3x) into equation 1
3x-35-15x=1
-12x=36
x=-3
solve for y.
3x-5y=1
3(-3)-5y=1
-9-5y=1
-5y=10
y=-2
Answer:
9:5 = 1428:x
ratios can also be written as fractions, so
9/5 = 1428/x
solve for x
9/5 × x = 1428
x = 1428 / (9/5)
x = 918
