Solve the system of equations. y= x + 17, y= 3x+1

Answer:

x=8, y=25. As a point it's (8,25)

Step-by-step explanation:

here is the system:

y=x+17

y=3x+1

notice how both of the equations equal y. Therefore, we can substitute one expression as y in the other expression. (It'll equal y=y, which is a true statement)

so it'll be:

3x+1=x+17

subtract 1 from both sides

3x=x+16

subtract x from both sides

2x=16

divide by 2

x=8

now, substitute 8 as x into one of the equations and solve for y

let's take the first one for example

y=8+17

y=25

so the answer is x=8, y=25. As a point it's (8,25)

Hope this helps!

Simpify the expression.<br>5+4z-2z<br><br>Simpilfied expression ​
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

2z + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to combine like terms

subtract 4z - 2z and you get 2z

the number with the variable next to it goes first not the constant

2z + 5

the variable is z and the constant is 5 because it doesn't have variable next to it

hope this makes sense and helps :)
