Ben would receive £390 while Alex would only receive £130
i would solve 4x-y =3 for y because the coefficient for y is 1
subtract 4x from each side
-y = -4x+3
divide by -1
y = 4x-3
<span>Rewrite the subtraction as addition 3- (-10)
= 3 + 10</span>
10= -4 + x x=14 because you do the opposite of the sign you see in this case its a plus sign so you subtract -4 from ten and since the 4 is a negative and your subtracting you would add 4 I know this probably didn't help it sounds really confusing but I have hope that it did :)
