Assuming x=x and  y=y in both equations
add them together

-4x+y=6
<u>-5x-y=21  +</u>
-9x+0y=27
-9x=27
divide by 9
-x=3
multiply -1
x=-3

subsiutte
-4x+y=6
-4(-3)+y=6
12+y=6
subtract 12
y=-6



x=-3
y=-6
the soultion set is in (x,y) form
(-3,-6)

Simplify 3a + 2b - 8a + b
Harlamova29_29 [7]

To simplify 3a + 2b - 8a + b, we need to combine like terms. Like terms are terms that share common variables. In this expression, the two variables are terms with a and terms with b. The terms that have a are 3a and -8a. The terms that have b are 2b and b. Now we can separate them and simplify.

(3a - 8a) + (2b + b)

-5a + 3b

The sum of two numbers is the same as four times the smaller number. If twice the larger is decreased by the smaller, the result
liraira [26]

The two numbers are 6 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • The sum of two numbers is the same as four times the smaller number
  • If twice the larger is decreased by the smaller, the result is 30

We need to find the the numbers

Assume that the smaller number is x and the larger number is y

∵ The smaller number = x

∵ The larger number = y

∵ The sum of the two numbers is the same as four times the

   smaller number

- That means add the two numbers and equate the sum by four

   times x

∴ x + y = 4x

- Subtract both sides by x

∴ y = 3x ⇒ (1)

∵ Twice the larger number is decreased by the smaller number,

   the result is 30

- That means multiply y by 2 and subtract x from the product,

    then equate the difference by 30

∴ 2y - x = 30 ⇒ (2)

- Substitute y in equation (2) by equation (1)

∵ 2(3x) - x = 30

∴ 6x - x = 30

- Add like terms in the left hand side

∴ 5x = 30

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 6

- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ y = 3(6)

∴ y = 18

The two numbers are 6 and 18
