Create a system of equations
x + y = 123
5x + y = 343
I use substitution
y = 123 - x
5x + 123 - x = 343
4x + 123 = 343
4x = 220
x = 55
Plug in
x + y = 123
55 + y = 123
y = 68
Check
5x + y = 343
5(55) + 68 = 343
275 + 68 = 343
343 = 343
Answer:
x=2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the like terms together, like so:
10x-2x=34-14
The result is this:
8x=20
Simplify to get:
x=2.5
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
-x + 2y = 8
5x + 2y = -4
+ x. -2y. -8
6x = -12
÷6. ÷6
x = -2
5(-2) + 2y = -4
-10 + 2y = -4
+10. +10
2y = 6
÷2. ÷2
y = 3
