Answer:

x = -2

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y = -19  ---------------------------(I)

7x+ 7y = 21  -----------------------------(II)

Multiply equation (I) by 7 and equation (II) by 3.Then add and so y will be eliminated and you will get the value of x

(I)*7              14x - 21y = - 133

(II)* 3           <u> 21x + 21y = 63  </u>        {Now add}

                   35x          = -70

                                x = -70/35

x = - 2

Plug in x = - 2 in equation (I)

2*(-2) - 3y = -19

-4 -  3y  = -19

     -3y = -19 + 4

     -3y = -15

         y = -15/-3

y = 5

If half of a box of candy weighs 3/5 of a pound, how much would 4 full boxes weigh?
Reil [10]
So we want to know what a full box is. We have the weight of half a box. So we can use the formula: (2 x 3/5) and you want to know the outcome of four full boxes. So (2x3/5)4
Or: 6/5 x 4

And the answer is 24/5. But if you want to simplify it, it’s 4 4/5

Please help one problem I’ll give brainliest..
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Your answer is infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

To use elimination you have to get one of the variables to be the opposite of each other, so here you would do:

-2(2x+y = 7)

   4x+2y= 14

You multiply the top by -2 to get the opposite of 2y, which is -2y. This in turn multiplies everything by -2 on the top solution giving us the top equation below.

  -4x-2y = -14

+ 4x+2y = 14

--------------------

      0 = 0

If you add those 2 solutions then you get 0 = 0, which is infinitely many solutions
