1 answer:

3 0

We have that

10x - 4 = 2 ( ? )
I proceed to replace the missing value with the given expression

case a-------------> 5x - 4
then
10x - 4 = 2 (5x-4 )--------> 10x - 4 = 10x-8--------> is not solution

case b-------------> 5x - 2
then
10x - 4 = 2 (5x-2 )--------> 10x - 4 = 10x-4--------> is solution

case c-------------> 10x - 4
then
10x - 4 = 2 (10x - 4 )--------> 10x - 4 = 20x-8--------> is not solution

case d-------------> 10x - 8
then
10x - 4 = 2 (10x - 8 )--------> 10x - 4 = 20x-16--------> is not solution

the answer is the option b) 5x - 2

Y=-x/2-10 -2x-y=5 substitution

antoniya [11.8K]

Put 1st equation into second
-2x -(x/2 - 10) = 5
-2x -1/2x + 10 = 5 combine like terms
-2.5x + 10 - 10 = 5 - 10
-2.5x = -5 divide both sides by 2.5
x = 2
