Well we could start by making common denominators so we can subtract these two fractions.

7/8 = 35/40

2/5 = 16/40.

35/40 = 16/40 = 19/40.

19/40 = 0.475.

So about 1? Not really, since it rounds down to 0.

Close to 1? Not really, since it rounds down to 0.

Exactly? No.

Solve the system by the elimination method. -2x + y + 6 = 0 2x + y - 8 = 0 When you eliminate x, what is the resulting equation?
Natali5045456 [20]

For this case we have the following system of two equations with two unknowns:

-2x + y + 6 = 0\\2x + y-8 = 0

Adding both equations we have to eliminate the variable "x":

y + y + 6-8 = 0

Adding common terms, keeping in mind that different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

2y-2 = 0\\2y = 2

Answer:

2y = 2

Option A
