Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are "consistent" and "not dependent." This will be the case whenever the ratios of x- and y-coefficients are different.

We can solve this by "elimination" by multiplying the first equation by -4 and adding the result of the second equation being multiplied by 7.
-4(2x -7y) +7(7x -4y) = -4(19) +7(5)
-8x +28y +49x -28y = -76 +35 . . . . eliminate parentheses
41x = -41 . . . . . simplify
x = -1 . . . . . . . divide by 41
Using the second equation, we find y to be ...
(7x -5)/4 = y = (7(-1) -5)/4 = -12/4 = -3
So, the solution is (x, y) = (-1, -3).
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this equation, plug your x value in and simplify.
-2x + 3
-2(5) + 3
-10 + 3
-7
I answered on paper hope that is alright with you. I just find it easier for math problems. That slash means two numbers cancel each other out. What's in the box is the answer and the proof that it's right is underneath.
