8x +7y = 39 multiply everything by 2
2(8x +7y = 39)
16x +14y = 78
+4x - 14y= -68
-------------------------
20x = 10
20x /20 = 10/20
x = 1/2

Plug x into first formula
8 x + 7y =39
8(1/2) 7y=39
4+ 7y =39
4-4+7y =39-4
7y =35
7y/7 = 35/7
y = 5

An integer is like a whole number (28 is an integer).
Irrational means the decimal goes on forever.......and cannot be written as a fraction (0.9857... is irrational).
A number that is not real is the squareroot of a negative, or something times i, or dividing by zero (5/0 is unreal).
A rational number can be written as a fraction (like 8 and 1/7).

Three consecutive integers can be represented by n, n + 1, and n + 2. if the seum of three consecutive integers is 57, what are
Helen [10]
Sum means add
sum of the 3 is
n+n+1+n+2

it add to 57
n+n+1+n+2=57
3n+3=57
minus 3 both sides
3n=54
divide both sides by 3
n=15
n+1=16
n+2=17

the integers are 15,16, and 17
