Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5 - 3x

5x - 4y = -3

you substitute for y since you know what y equals.

so, it will then be

5x -4(5 -3x) = -3

you then multiply -4 by everything in the parenthesis

so then it will be

5x - 20 + 12x = -3

Then combine like terms

5x + 12x = 17x

then the new equation is

17x -20 = -3

the next step is to and 20 to both sides since it is negative you do the opposite.

17x - 20 = -3

+ 20 +20

17x = 17 divide 17 by both sides sice 17 is being multiplied by x you do the opposite and divide and you get 1.

Answer:

$\displaystyle \begin{cases} \displaystyle {x} _{1} = - p \\ \displaystyle x _{2} = - q \end{cases}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to solve the following equation for x:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q} + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{p + q + x}$

to do so isolate $\frac{1}{x}$ to right hand side and change its sign which yields:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q} = \frac{1}{p + q + x} - \frac{1}{x}$

simplify Substraction:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q} = \frac{x - (q + p + x)}{x(p + q + x)}$

get rid of only x:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q} = \frac{ - (q + p )}{x(p + q + x)}$

simplify addition of the left hand side:

$\displaystyle \frac{q + p}{pq} = \frac{ - (q + p )}{x(p + q + x)}$

divide both sides by q+p Which yields:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{pq} = \frac{ -1}{x(p + q + x)}$

cross multiplication:

$\displaystyle x(p + q + x) = - pq$

distribute:

$\displaystyle xp + xq + {x}^{2} = - pq$

isolate -pq to the left hand side and change its sign:

$\displaystyle xp + xq + {x}^{2} + pq = 0$

rearrange it to standard form:

$\displaystyle {x}^{2} + xp + xq + pq = 0$

now notice we end up with a quadratic equation therefore to solve so we can consider factoring method to use so

factor out x:

$\displaystyle x( {x}^{} + p ) + xq + pq = 0$

factor out q:

$\displaystyle x( {x}^{} + p ) +q (x + p)= 0$

group:

$\displaystyle ( {x}^{} + p ) (x + q)= 0$

by Zero product property we obtain:

$\displaystyle \begin{cases} \displaystyle {x}^{} + p = 0 \\ \displaystyle x + q= 0 \end{cases}$

cancel out p from the first equation and q from the second equation which yields:

$\displaystyle \begin{cases} \displaystyle {x}^{} = - p \\ \displaystyle x = - q \end{cases}$

and we are done!
