X will equal 7.
4(5x-2)=2(9x+3)
20x-8=18x+6
20x-18x=8+6
2x=14
x=7

4(5x-2) = 2(9x+3)
20x - 8 = 2(9x+3)
20x - 8 = 18x + 6
20x - 18x - 8= 6
20x - 18x = 6 + 8
2x = 6 + 8
2x = 14
x = 7

Solve this using substitution method. Many many thanks

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

y=2 and x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

sub 2 into 1

3(15-7y) + 4y= 11

45 - 21y +4y =11

-21y+4y= 11-45

-17y= - 34

y=2

Therefore sub y into x equation

x=15-7(2)

x= 1

A sequence can be generated by using an = an-1 + 4, where a1 = 6 and n is a whole number greater than 1. What are the first four

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The first four terms are 4,8,12,16

Step-by-Step Explanation:

The given relation between the nth term and it's previous term is given by:

$\boxed{an = an - 1 + 4}$

GiveN:

a1 = 4

Now finding the other three terms of the AP with the given relation.

$a2 = a1 + 4$

Putting a1 = 4,

$a2 = 4 + 4 = 8$

Now, Third term:

$a3 = a2 + 4$

Putting a2 = 8,

$a3 = 8 + 4 = 12$

Now, Fourth term:

$a4 = a3 + 4$

Putting a3 = 12,

$a4 = 12 + 4 = 16$

Hence, The first four terms of the AP is 4, 8, 12 & 16.

Solve each system by elimination. 3x - 2y = 1 2x + 2 y = 14

Paha777 [63]

Add 3 and 12 , cancel -2 y+2y and and add 14 and 14
3x-2y=14
12x+2y=14
15x=28
Divide both sides by 15
X=28/15
3x 28/15 -2y=14
Y=-21/5
(X,y)=28/15, -21/5
3x 28/15 -2x(-21/5)=12x 28/15 +2x(-21/5)=14
14=14=14
(x, y)=(28/15, -21/5) is the answer
