Answer:

x - y = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 4y = 13 → (1)

4x + 5y = 14 → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term , that is

(5x - 4x) + (4y - 5y) = 13 - 14

x - y = - 1

Answer:

x = 1

y = 2

x - y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 4y= 13,   then 4y = 13 - 5x, then y = (13 - 5x)/4

4x + 5y = 14

substitute for y:

4x + 5(13 - 5x)/4 = 14

simplifying:

4x + (65 - 25x)/4 = 14

4x + 16.25 -6.25x = 14

-2.25x = -2.25

x = 1

y = (13 - 5)/4 = 2

How do you solve for Y in x=5 +8y-8
Rzqust [24]

x = 5 + 8y - 8

Combine like terms.

x = -3 + 8y

Add 3 to both sides.

x + 3 = 8y

Divide both sides by 8.

y = \frac{x+3}{8}
