Answer:
X=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-10x=22-2
-5x=20
x=-4
the sum of 1+3+5+7+1209 is.....1225
60 miles because 2160 divided by 36 = 60
It is B glad I could help!
Answer:
One number, let's call it x, is 6 more than twice the other number, let's say this number is y.
x= 2y+6
x+y=21
We're left with a system of equations.
If we substitute the first equation in the second we find the value of y.
(2y+6)+y=21
3y+6=21
3y=15
<u><em>y=5</em></u>
Now that we have found the value of y, we can take that value and substitute it in the second equation (since it's easier) to find the value of x.
x+ (5)=21
<u><em>x=16</em></u>
<u><em>Now to check if our answers are correct, we plug in both values into any equation and see if they equate.</em></u>
x+y=21
(16)+(5)=21
21=21
Our solution is correct!
