You have 2 equations that are both equal to y. If they are both equal to y, then by the transitive property of equality, they are equal to each other (if a = b, and b = c, then a = c).
5x - 17 = x + 3 and
4x = 20 and x = 5. Now sub in that x value of 5 to solve for y:
y = 5 + 3 and y = 8. So the ordered pair is (5, 8)
Answer:
8x + 1/2 or 8x + 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x + 3 3/4 + 14x - 3.25
u can either convert the fraction to a decimal or convert the decimal into a fraction, i'm going to do the latter
-6x + 3 3/4 + 14x - 3 1/4
rearrange to make it easier, don't need to do this i'm just doing this for the sake of it
-6x + 14x + 3 3/4 - 3 1/4
8x + 2/4, simplify this
8x + 1/2
The decimal way if u want:
-6x + 3 3/4 + 14x - 3.25
-6x + 3.75 + 14x - 3.25
-6x + 14x + 3.75 - 3.25
8x + 0.5
