Answer:

x = 3, the error is that the -2x should be added.

Step-by-step explanation:

The -2x should be added to the left side.

3x - 7 = -2x + 8

3x + 2x = 8 + 7

5x = 15

x =3

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct way:

Add 2x to 3x ( 5x )

3x-7=8

Add 7 to 8 ( 15 )

3x=15

Divide 15/3

x= 5

What was wrong:

You need to combine like terms and put the variable on the left side of the equation and then follow the steps above. You also forgot to divide.

Hope this helped, Have a Great Day!!

If (x, y) is a solution to the system of equations, what is the value of y? 1/4 x + 1/8 y = 2 1/3 x + 1/2 y = 4 A) 4 B) 6 C) -6

andre [41]

<h3>The value of y is 4</h3>

Solution:

Given system of equations are:

$\frac{1}{4}x + \frac{1}{8}y =2 ---------- eqn\ 1\\\\\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{1}{2}y = 4 -------------- eqn\ 2$

We have to find value of y

From eqn 1,

$\frac{1}{4}x + \frac{1}{8}y =2 \\\\2x + y = 2 \times 8\\\\2x + y = 16 ---- eqn\ 3$

From eqn 2,

$\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{1}{2}y = 4\\\\2x + 3y = 4 \times 6\\\\2x + 3y = 24 ------ eqn\ 4$

Subtract eqn 3 from eqn 4

2x + 3y = 24

2x + y = 16

( - ) -----------------

2y = 8

y = 4

Thus value of y is 4
