Step-by-step explanation:
hope that helps!
Answer:
The solution is (8, -1).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 4y = 12..........(1)
y = 1/4x – 3 ..........(2)
Substitute y = x - 3 in equation (1):
2x + 4(1/4x - 3) = 12
2x + x - 12 = 12
3x = 24
x = 8.
Now substitute for x in equation (2):
y = 1/4 *8 - 3
y = -1.
Answer:
x = 13 ; x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest related equation to get is simply solving for x:
a) x + 5 = 18
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 5 from both sides:
x + 5 (-5) = 18 (-5)
x = 18 - 5
x = 13*
b) 66x = 330
Isolate the variable, x. Divide 66 from both sides of the equation:
(66x)/66 = (330)/66
x = 330/66
x = 5*
*Note: An equation simply is a expression that has an equal sign. This means that as long as there is an equal sign, it counts as an equation.

Answer:
N+F=42 & F+3N=70 System Solved: Natalie is 14 and Fred is 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Using variables N=natalies age and F=Freds age
N+F=42 ----> N=42-F (take this and plug it into the other equation)
F+3N=70 so F+3(42-F)=70 [simplify] F+126-3F=70 [further simplify]
-2F=-56 [divide -56 by -2] F=28 [then plug this number into the orig. equation]
So N+28=42 or N=14.
The Answer is x=15. Good luck!
