Hello there!
3x - y = 3
-x + y = 3
We need to solve 3x - y = 3 for y
Let start by adding -3x to both sides
3x - y = 3
3x - 3x - y = 3 - 3x
-y = 3 - 3x
We cannot leave the variable with a negative sign. We must multiply both sides by -1
-y * -1= (3 - 3x)-1
y = 3x - 3
Substitute 3x -3 for y in -x+y=3
-x + y = 3
-x + 3x - 3 = 3
2x - 3 = 3
2x = 3 + 3
2x = 6
x = 6/2
x = 3
Now substitute 3 for x in y=3x -3
y = 3x - 3
y = 3(3) - 3
y= 9 - 3
y= 6
Thus,
The answer is x=3 and y=6
It is always my pleasure to help students like you :)

The algebraic equation is 4(0.25)+2x=17
STEP 1: Simplify both sides of the equation
1+2x=17 or 2x+1
STEP 2: Subtract both sides
2x = 16
STEP 3: Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 16/2
x = 8

Answer:
5x - 2 = 3x = 14
8x -2 = 14
8x = 14 + 2
8x = 16
x = 2

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
note that sin x = cos(90 - x ) ← Cofunction identity
If x = 36 then 90 - x = 90 - 36 = 54
Hence sin 36° = cos 54° → C
