8-3x=17 substract 8
-8 -8
-3x=17-8
-3x=9 divide by -3
/-3 /-3
x=9/-3
x=-3 Solved for x
Use substitution and substitute y into the other equation. One of the equations already gives you y in terms of x, so use that and substitute it into the other equation. y = 3x - 4
Plug into the other equation: -3y = -9x + 12
-3(3x-4) = -9x + 12
-9x + 12 = -9x + 12
This is an identity. So that means that any value of x makes this equation true. So B.
Answer:
$80
Step-by-step explanation:
4x/2=2x
7x-60
7x-60=2x*2
7x-60=4x
3x=60
x=20
20*4=80
Answer: f(x)-g(x)=2x+5
Step by step:
f(x) = 3x+2
g(x) = x-3
f(x)-g(x) = 3x +2 - (x-3) = 3x + 2-x+3=2x+5
