5x + 4y = 17 Y - x = 2 x = y = please help

I will solve this equation simultaneously by Substitution.

- x + y = 2
5x + 4y = 17

Solve - x + y = 2 for y:
- x + y + x = 2 + x (here we add x to both sides)
y = x + 2

Substitute x + 2 for y in 5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4(x + 2) = 17
5x + 4x + 8 = 17
9x + 8 = 17 (simplify both sides of the equation)
9x + 8 + (-8) = 17 + (-8) (add -8 to both sides)
9x = 9
9x/9 = 9/9 (divide both sides by 9)

x = 1

Substitute 1 for x in y = x + 2
y = x + 2
y = 1 + 2
y = 3 ( simplify both sides of the equation)

Therefore x = 1 and y = 3

Julissa wants to find the perimeter of her bedroom that is similar to her brother's. If her brother's bedroom is 12 ft long and
tatuchka [14]
I’m guessing that her room is 10ft long and 12ft wide
Because it is similar

To find perimeter, you add.
10 + 10 + 12 + 12
44ft
So about 40ft

Hope this helps :D
