It’s 102in sorry if I’m late to answer
I would solve the first equation for x and then sub that value into x in the second equation. That's the easiest way. x - 2y = 3 solved for x is x = 2y+3. Now sub that in for x in the second equation: 5(2y+3)+3y=2 and 10y + 15 + 3y = 2. 13y = -13, and y = -1. Now sub that y value into either equation to solve for x: x = 2(-1) + 3 gives us an x value of x = 1. Therefore, your solution to this system is (1, -1), first choice above.
Hello! :)
To solve your equation, we will first simplify both sides of the equation
-7 = -1 + x/3
-7 = -1 + 1/3x
-7 = 1/3x - 1
Next, we will flip the equation
1/3x - 1 = -7
Third, we will add 1 to both sides
1/3x - 1 + 1 = -7 + 1
1/3x = -6
Last, we will Multiply both sides by 3
3 * (1/3x) = (3) * (-6)
x = -18 (ANSWER)
That means -18 is you answer
Hope this helped you!
