Thanks!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
P + -21 + -21 = 34 + -21
-21 + -21 + P = 34 + -21
Combine like terms: -21 + -21 = -42
-42 + P = 34 + -21
Combine like terms: 34 + -21 = 13
-42 + P = 13
Solving
-42 + P = 13
Solving for variable 'P'.
Move all terms containing P to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '42' to each side of the equation.
-42 + 42 + P = 13 + 42
Combine like terms: -42 + 42 = 0
0 + P = 13 + 42
P = 13 + 42
Combine like terms: 13 + 42 = 55
P = 55
Simplifying
P = 55
Answer:
x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use elimination.
First, we need to multiply so that at least one variable can cancel out.
We can multiply the top equation by 2.
So we get
4x + 6y = 20
Then, we can use elimination.
The x's cancel out.
So we get 5y = 24
Or y = 24/5
Then, we can plug in this y value back into the first equation to find x.
2x + 3(24/5) = 10
2x + 72/5 = 50/5
2x = -22/5
x = -11/5
So x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
