Answer:
(5, 3 ) and (- 
, - 10 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - y = 7 → (1)
xy = 15 → (2)
Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x , that is
y = 2x - 7 → (3)
Substitute y = 2x - 7 into (2)
x(2x - 7) = 15
2x² - 7x = 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
2x² - 7x - 15 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 5)(2x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = -
Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y
x = 5 : y = 2(5) - 7 = 10 - 7 = 3 ⇒ (5, 3 )
x = - : y = 2(- ) - 7 = - 3 - 7 = - 10 ⇒ (- , - 10 )
I remember answering the same question, but you didn't attach any photos. But I remember that the answer is the first one.
I hope I helped. Stay safe and God bless!

It would be 19x because it is the same as 19 times x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Michael and Juanita are interested in the amount of sand required to build a sand pyramid of the size that they see while at a sand sculpture exhibit. They carefully measure the width of the square base of the sand pyramid which is 4 feet and the height of the pyramid which is 5 feet. How much sand is required to build this sand pyramid?
