Mathematics

Answer:

x=-5 and y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can change both of the equations by:

-1(-8x-8y)=-1(0)

2(-5x-4y)=2(5)

Then they become:

8x+8y=0

-10x-8y=10

Add both equations onto one another and you get:

-2x=10 with x=-5

Plug back x=-5 into either equation (original or changed)

-8(-5)-8y=0

40-8y=0

40=8y

y=5

Answer:

x=-5, y=5 or (-5,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do elimination with this

this means we should first multiply -5x-4y=5  by 2

this would make it -10x-8y=10

we can now subtract this from the original equation

-8x-8y=0 - (-10x-8y=10)

the ys would cancel out

so this would equal

2x=-10

x=-5

now we can plug this back into the equation to find y

-8(-5)-8y=0

40-8y=0

-8y=-40

y=5

Kayla paid $27.50 for a pair of gloves. The cost of the gloves is $8.75 more than the cost of a scarf. Which equation can be use
Mariana [72]

Answer:

You can use subtraction

Step-by-step explanation:

$27.50 - $8.75 = $18.75 (cost of scarf)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

the gloves cost 27.50 dollars and if the scarf cost 8.75 dollrs more then that means that if we subtract that extra mount we should get the price of the scarf

if $18.75 is the cost of scarf and if gloves are $8.75 more then...

$18.75 (scarf) + $8.75 (extra $) = $27.50 (gloves)
