3x +4y = 8
y = 3/4x - 2
Substitution Method
3x + 4(3/4x -2) = 8
Distributive Property:
3x + 3x -8 = 8
Simplify:
6x -8 = 8
Add 8 to each side:
6x = 16
Divide both sides by 6"
x = 16/6
x = 2 2/3
Now replace x with that and solve for y:
y = 3/4(2 2/3) - 2
y = 2-2 = 0
y=0
The answer is x^8 because each of them are the same values, and it’s combining like terms

Answer:price of the bicycle was reduced by 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Old Price of bicycle = $120
New Price of bicycle= $90
Price decrease= $120-$90= $30
Step 2
Percentage decrease = Decrease / Original price x 100
= (30/120) x 100
1/4 x 100
= 25%
Therefore the percentage decrease in the price is 25%
