Answer:
1/5x+51=2x+42
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 of x, the number, plus 51 is equal to 2 times the number plus 42.
1. 5/16
2. 1/3
3. 3/20
4. 38
5. 3/4
6. 6
Answer:
0.1375
Step-by-step explanation:
X=-1 and y=3
To solve this, because y is equal to 2x+5, you can substitute 2x+5 into the bottom equation for y.
You now have 3x - (2x + 5) =-6
This can be solved like a normal equation. Multiply each term in the parenthesis by -1.
3x - 2x - 5 = -6
Subtract 2x from 3x
x - 5 = -6
Add 5 to both sides
x=-1
Now you can solve for y by plugging -1 in for x in either equation. Im going to use the top one.
y= 2(-1)+5
y= -2+5
y=3
You can check your answer by plugging in the values for x and y into both equations and making sure both sides equal each other.
