Answer:

The solution is: (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

I have the following system of equations

12x - y = 25

9x + y =17

Note that if we add both equations, the variable y is "eliminated".

So add the first equation to the second and solve for the variable x

12x - y = 25

9x + y =17

----------------------------------

21x=42

x=\frac{42}{21}\\\\x=2

Now substitute the value of x in any of the two equations and solve for the variable y

9(2) + y =17

18 + y =17

y =17-18

y =-1

The solution is: (2, -1)

Answer:

the ordered pair is (2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the system of equations using elimination method

12x - y = 25     eq(1)

9x + y = 17      eq(2)

Adding eq(1) and eq(2)

12x - y = 25

9x + y = 17

___________

21x = 42

x = 42/21

x= 2

Now, putting value of x in equation 1

12x - y = 25

12(2) -y = 25

24 -y = 25

Adding -24 on both sides

24 -y-24 = 25-24

-y = 25-24

-y = 1

Multiply both sides by -1

y = -1

the value of x = 2 and y = -1

So, the ordered pair is (2,-1)

26=8+v I dont know how to do this and I need help
Goshia [24]
26 = 8 + v equals v = 18.

First, 
subtract 8 from both sides. Your problem should look like 26 - 8 = v.
Second, simplify 26 - 8 to get 18. Your problem should look like 18 = v.
Third, switch sides. Your problem should look like v = 18, which is the correct answer.
