8x + 7y = 39
4x - 14y = -68

(multiply each term in second equation by -2)

8x + 7y = 39
-8x + 28y = 136

(add both equations)

35y = 175

(divide both sides by 35)

y = 5

(substitute value of y in one of the equations)

8x + 7(5) = 39
8x + 35 = 39
8x = 4
x = 1/2
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)

How do I solve this?
patriot [66]
You already know that y equals -4. It says that x equals 3, so multiply the -4 by 3 and because it has a negative number and a positive number it will equal -12. Remember anytime you see a letter after a number it means multiply. The complete problem should be -10 because 2 is a whole number you subtract it from -12. Hope that helped you out some.

In triangle ABC, angle A = 2x°, angle B = (x-45)° and angle C = (x-15)°.
Lelechka [254]
Sum\ of\ angles\ in\ triangle\ is\ equal\ to\ 180^{\circ}\\\\
To\ find\ x\ sum\ all\ angles:\\
2x+x-45+x-15=180\\\\
4x-60=180\ \ \ |Add\ 60\\\\
4x=60+180\\\\
4x=240\ \ \ |Divided\ by\ 4\\\\
x=60^{\circ}\\\\
\angle \  A=2x=2*60=120^{\circ}\\
\angle\ B=x-45=60-45=15^{\circ}\\
\angle\ C=x-15=60-15=45^{\circ}\\\\Triangle\ is\ \textbf{obtuse}.
