9x + 18 /4 + -5x + 24 / 4
Alright, lets get started.
Justin is asked to solve the linear equations using elimination method.
By using elimination method means we have to multiply some numbers in our given equations in such a way that the co-efficient of x or y become same in both equations so that we could add or subtract them to cancel one of the term either x or y.
So, given equations are :


See we have 5x in first equation and -20x in second equation.
So, we try to change 5x into 20 x by multiplying it with 4, both of the equations will have 20 x in common
Lets multiply 4 in first equation


Now both equations could be added and 20 x will be cancelled out and we could easily find the value of y then solve for x.
So, Justin should try to change 5 so that it will be cancels, so option B : Answer
Hope it will help :)
This is not a form of income it is known as federal tax refund.
What is federal tax refund ?
Tax refunds are issued to taxpayers who have overpaid their taxes, or whose employers have withheld too much from their paychecks.
Therefore, A federal tax refund is not entered on a federal tax return so it is not income. Tax refunds from state governments can be itemized deductions on your federal tax return in the year they are issued.
It must be noted that If you electronically file your tax return or if you file a paper return, your refund is generally issued within 21 days.
