Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x + 4y = 8 → (1)
y - 5x = 2 ← rewrite as
- 5x + y = 2 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 4 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term
20x - 4y = - 8 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
23x + 0 = 0
23x = 0 , then
x = 0
Substitute x = 0 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
3(0) + 4y = 8
4y = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )
y = 2
solution is (0, 2 )
That is the lines intersect once at (0, 2 )
Since

, you can eliminate this part.
So you're left with

Answer:
box contains - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
a(x - 3) + 2x = -(x - 5) +4 Remove the brackets on both sides
ax - 3a + 2x = -x + 5 + 4 Subtract 2x from both sides.
ax - 3a + 2x - 2x = -x - 2x + 9
ax - 3a = - 3x + 9
ax - 3(-3) = - 3x + 9
ax + 9 = - 3x + 9
Now if you make a = -3 then both sides with have - 3 for the x coefficient.
Any number could be put in for x and it will make the answer on both sides equal. Notice you could subtract 9 from both sides and it will not change the condition of the problem.
