Answer:

<h2>x = 2</h2><h2>y = 3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - y = 5..........… Equation 1

x + 2y = 8 ............. Equation 2

Make x the subject in equation 2 and substitute it into equation 1

That's

x = 8 - 2y

We have

4( 8 - 2y ) - y = 5

32 - 8y - y = 5

- 9y = - 27

Divide both sides by - 9

We have the final answer as

<h3>y = 3</h3>

Substitute y = 3 into x = 8 - 2y

That's

x = 8 - 2(3)

= 8 - 6

<h3>x = 2</h3>

Hope this helps you

- 4x+8y=32.

____________

-9y=-27

----- ----

-9. -9.

y=3.

then substitute into any equation...

equation one.

4x-3=5.

4x=5+3.

4x=8.

x=8/4.

Sammi has 2 1/3 feet of rope. If he cuts the rope into pieces that are each 1/2 foot long, there will be 1/3 foot of rope left o
Stells [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sammi has 2 1/3 feet of rope.

To write this type of fraction = 2 + 1/3 - The integer 2 in the expression is the amount of feet of rope that was cut.

Thus to know the number of 1/2 foot pieces produced, let this number be x. Thus, we have 1/2 of x pieces = 2

  x/2 = 2; x = 2x2 = 4.

Thus, Sanmi has 4 pieces of 1/2 foot long piece each of rope.
