Answer: -5, 1: -5, 2: -8, 1
Step-by-step explanation: Just flip it on the other side
Answer:
y = 5x
Step-by-step explanation:
If each calendar, <em>x</em>, sells for $5 each, you would multiply 5·x because $5 is how much you earn per calender. Therefore, your total income would be 5 times the number of calendars you sell, or in equation "language", y = 5x
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems this system of equations would be solved easier using the elimination method (the x and y values are lined up).
Multiply everything in the first equation by -2 (we want the 4x to be able to cancel out with a -4x).

Now line up the equations (they are already lined up - convenient) and add them from top to bottom.

The -4x and 4x are opposites, so they cancel out.
Adding 6y and 2y gives you 8y, and adding -12 and 4 gives you -8.

Divide both sides by 8.

Since you have the y-value you can substitute this in to the second (or first equation, it doesn't necessarily matter) equation.

Simplify.

Add 2 to both sides.

Divide both sides by 4.

The final answer is
.
