Question

Thank you show your work<3 x= y=

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=-5,\\y=\frac{13}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin{cases}x+2y=8,\\x=-5\end{cases}$

Substitute the second equation into the first ($x=-5$):

$-5+2y=8,\\2y=13,\\y=\boxed{\frac{13}{2}}$

The second equation already denotes $x=-5$. Therefore,

$\boxed{x=-5,\\y=\frac{13}{2}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

x=-5

y=6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

if x=-5 then x+2y=8 could be rewriten as -5+2y=8 then you add 5 on both sides and you get 2y=13 then divide both sides by 2 and you get y=6.5
