I would love to use substitution (It is simplier that way I guess)
solve your system of equations.
x+2y=−1;x−y=5
Solve x+2y=−1 for x:
x+2y+−2y=−1+−2y(Add -2y to both sides)
x=−2y−1
Substitute (−2y−1) for x in x−y=5:
x−y=5
−2y−1−y=5
−3y−1=5(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−3y−1+1=5+1(Add 1 to both sides)
−3y=6
−3y/−3 = 6/−3(Divide both sides by -3)
y=−2
Substitute (−2) for y in x=−2y−1:
x=−2y−1
x=(−2)(−2)−1
x=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)
So the answer is (x = 3 and y = -2)

Step-by-step explanation:
5x-7=-10x+8
5x=−10x+8+7
5x=−10x+15
5x+10x=15
15x=15

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b / 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are splitting <em>b</em> bumper stickers between <u>4</u> members, you must divide the number of bumper stickers by the number of members, which is 4! Dividing is just like if you were to divvy something up between people, but it is a mathematical term! This will give you b / 4.
