We can solve this by substitution method.
Look at the second equation. If we rearrange to find 7x, we can substitute in the value into the first equation.
Therefore, 
Now replace the 7x in the first equation with 5y - 12:
(substitute in 7x = 5y - 12)
Now that we know y, we can find x by substituting in y = 1 into any equation we want. I will use the equation: 7x = 5y - 12
(substitute in y = 1)

Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation:
it's a rectangle, both the longer sides are the same and both the shorter sides are the same. so the opposite side has to equal 6, to get there we need to solve the equation, I did a few and ended up finding the correct answer to be 8. Since:
2*8-10=6
Therefore, both sides are now equal.

Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = (y-4)^2 - 2
square root of x = y - 4 - 2
square root of x = y - 6
(square root of x) - 6 = y
Number of medium cherry slices : 10
number of medium orange slices : 40
ratio of cherry to orange : 10/40 reduces to 1/4 or 1:4 or 1 to 4
