Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x - 5 = x - 2 and
x - 5 = 2 - x.
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 5 may be positive or negative so we have:
x - 5 = x - 2
and
x - 5 = - (x - 2)
x - 5 = 2 - x.
Answer:
x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use elimination.
First, we need to multiply so that at least one variable can cancel out.
We can multiply the top equation by 2.
So we get
4x + 6y = 20
Then, we can use elimination.
The x's cancel out.
So we get 5y = 24
Or y = 24/5
Then, we can plug in this y value back into the first equation to find x.
2x + 3(24/5) = 10
2x + 72/5 = 50/5
2x = -22/5
x = -11/5
So x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
