The answer will be 4/8 but the simplest form is 1/2
You want the minimum of the solutions to
x + y = 24
7x - y = 16
There are many ways to solve these equations. Adding them together, you get
8x = 40
x = 5
Since this value is less than 12, it is the smaller number. The smaller number is 5.
Answer:
-w²+49x²-8wx
Step-by-step explanation:
if you want how I did this it's quite lengthy so let me know if you want the process
Steps:
1. Substitute the y in y=4x + 4 and put
X-6=-4x+4
2. Add 4x to both sides
3. 5x-6=4
4. Add 6 to both sides
5. 5x=10
6. Divide by 5 on both sides
7. X=2
8. Now to find the y, you substitute 2 for x in the problem y=x-6
9. Y=2-6
10. Y=-4
11. Your answer is
(2, -4)
