2x+y=5

x+y=4


We need to solve 2x+y=5 for y

let's start by adding -2x to both sides

2x+y-2x=5-2x

y=-2x+5

Now substitute -2x+5 for y in x+y=4

x+y=4

x-2x+5=4

-x+5 =4

Add -5 to both sides so we can find the value for x

-x+5-5=4-5

-x=-1

We know that x can not stay with the negative sign so to eliminate that we need to divide both sides by -1

-x/-1= -1/-1

x=1

Now we have the value for x :)

We need to find the value for y by substitute 1 for x in y=-2x+5

y=-2x+5

y= (-2)(1)+5

y= -2+5

y= 3

Final answer : x=1 and y=3

                          (1,3)


I hope that's help :)

Mike says he can find a fraction equivalent to 1/10, even through 1/10 is a unit fraction. Is mike correct? Explain
Sladkaya [172]
Yes.

1/10 is the most simplified version of a fraction with the same ratio. other fractions like 2/20, 3/30,..., 8/80 and so on are also equal to 1/10.
