Answer:

The solution is x = -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the equation 3x + y = -9

Substitute the y for 5x+7 seen in the second equation

Now you have 3x + (5x+7) = -9

Lets solve:

Let's add the x's

Now we have 8x + 7 = -9

Substracy seven from each side

Now we have 8x = -16

Now let's divide 8 on each side

Now we have x = -2

Now lets plug in -2 to the second equation

The second equation is y = 5x+7

When we plug in -2 we get y=5(-2)+7

We multiply

We now have y = -10+7

Add

y = -3

The solution is x = -2, y = -3

Can someone help me understand squares,cubes,and roots with example problems please
erastova [34]

when someone says a number squared or cubed, or to the certain power, it means how many times you multiply the base number by itself that many times, for example

2²= 2 * 2

or 9³ = 9 x 9 x 9

a square root or cube root, is a harder to understand, but still somewhat simple, it basically means how many what number squared or cubed equals this number.

so for example the square root of 9 = 3 because 3 x 3=9

or cube roots for example ∛125= 5 because 5 x 5 x 5

So here is an example one for you. √81.

Select all the statements that correctly describe the solutions to this system of equations?
Luba_88 [7]

x + y = 9

x = 9 - y

2x - y = 0

2(9 - y) - y = 0

18 - 2y - y = 0

-3y = -18

y = 6

x = 9 - y

x = 9 - 6

x = 3
