Multiply first equation by 2:
10x + 2y = 18
Subtract the second equation from this so that the 2y terms cancel:
10x - 3x = 18 - 4
7x = 14
x = 2
Plug into first equation to find y:
5(2) + y = 9
10 + y = 9
y = -1
The answer is (2,-1)
Answer:
y = -4/5x + 2/5

Hi there
I=prt
P principle 8000
R interest rate 0.095
T time 120/360
I interest earned?
I=8,000×0.095×(120÷360)
I=253.33
Hope it helps
Let unknown integer be n.
So then your sentence would translate to 3n² + n = 2.
If you need to solve for n then we can move 2 to left side by subtract both sides by 2:
3n² + n - 2 = 0
Now you can factor:
3n² + 3n -2n - 2 = 0
3n( n + 1 ) - 2( n + 1 ) = 0
( 3n - 2 )( n + 1 ) = 0
3n - 2 = 0 OR n + 1 = 0
3n = 2 OR n = -1
n = 2/3 OR n = -1
Final answer: n = 2/3 OR n = -1
