A. solve for 1 variable
let's solve for x in 2nd equation
add 2y to both sides
x=2y+4
sub 2y+4 for x in other equation
3(2y+4)+y=5
6y+12+y=5
7y+12=5
minu12 both sides
7y=-7
divide 7
y=-1
sub back
x=2y+4
x=2(-1)+4
x=-2+4
x=2
(2,-1)
B. eliminate
eliminate y's
multiply first equation by 2 and add to first
6x+2y=10
<u>x-2y=4 +</u>
7x+0y=14
7x=14
divide by 7
x=2
sub back
x-2y=4
2-2y=4
minus 2
-2y=2
divide -2
y=-1
(2,-1)
(2,-1) is answer
ill help but where is the clock?
You start by adding 4 to both sides, isolating the X. then you have your answer X < 3
ap + 1993 = 3983.
i.e ap 1990, add 1993 its then 3983.
