Answer:

D. x = -2y + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 8y = 16

Solve for x

Our objective here is to isolate x ( in other words we want to get x by itself ) using inverse operations.

So let's begin

4x + 8y = 16

First we want to get rid of 8y

Notice how 8y is being added to 4x

Well we can get rid of it by applying it's inverse operation. The opposite of addition is subtraction. So to get rid of 8y we would simply subtract 8y.

Important note! Whatever we do to one side we must do to the other

So we would subtract 8y from both sides

4x + 8y - 8y = 16 - 8y

The 8y on the left hand side cancels out and the 8y on the right side stays as it is as you can't subtract 8y from 16

We then have 4x = 16 - 8y

Next we want to get rid of 4 from 4x.

4x is the same as 4*x which is multiplication

The inverse of multiplication is division so to get rid of the 4 we divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = (16-8y)/4

4x/4 = x

16-8y/4 ( simply divide 16 by 4 and -8y by 4 )

16-8y/4 = 4 - 2y

We're left with x = 4 - 2y which can also be written as x = -2y + 4

Which properties justify the steps taken to solve the system? {3x−2y=10 4x−3y=14
Alexeev081 [22]
The answer is: Substitution property of equality.

 The explanation is shown below:

1. To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 2. When you clear the variable x from the first equation, and subtitute it into the second equation, you obtain:

 <span>3x−2y=10
 x=(10+2y)/3

 4x−3y=14
 </span>4[(10+2y)/]−3y=14
<span> y=-2

 3. When you subsitute y=-2 into the first equation and clear the x, you have:

 x=2
 </span>
