The short answer is to solve one equation for one variable, then swap that variable in a different equation.

Example:
 2x + 2y = 6
 y-x = 1

Step 1: solve either equation for a variable: (#2) y = x+1
Step 2: substitute for your solved variable (I can substitute x+1 for y)

(#1) 2x + 2(x+1) = 6
2x + 2x + 2 = 6
4x + 2 = 6
4x = 4
x = 1

now use x=1 to solve for y in either original equation

Donovan fed his dog for 5 weeks and used 12 lbs of dog food, at the same rate. How much dog food will he use in 8 weeks?
Anna [14]

Answer:

19.2 lbs of dog food in 5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

12 divided by 5 is 2.4

So that means each week the dog consumes 2.4 lbs of food each week.

If we want to see how much he eats in 8 weeks, we'd multiply 2.4 by 8, giving us 19.2
