Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x-3) = 20

-4x + 12 = 20

^ Here, Glendon added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting. Her equation was not balanced.

-4x = 8

x = -2

Use the linear combination method to solve the system of equations. â€"2. 1x 4y = 5. 3 2. 1x â€" 5. 5y = â€"0. 2 What is the sol
RoseWind [281]

The solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)

Given the systems of equations expressed as:

-x + 4y = 5 ....................1

x - 5y = -2 ...................... 2

Add both equations to have:

-x+x + 4y - 5y = 5 - 2

4y-5y = -3

-y = -3

y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into equation 1:

-x + 4(3) = 5

-x + 12 = 5

-x = 5 - 12

-x = -7

x = 7

Hence the solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)
