Answer:
15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2
move the variable to it's own side.
5 3/4 - 4 1/2 = 1/6x
change the subtracting side to have common denominators
5 3/4 - 4 2/4 = 1/6x
1 1/4 = 1/6 x
divide both sides by 1/6, same thing as multiplying both sides by 6 (reciprocal)
30/4 = x
reduce: 15/2 = x
You can substitute what y is into the second equation, so:
3x + 4(2x + 1) = 26
3x + 8x + 4 = 26
11x + 4 = 26
- 4
11x = 22
÷ 11
x = 2
y = (2 × 2) + 1
y = 5 + 1
y = 5
So you get x as 2 and y as 5, I hope this helps!
