x - y = 35
x = 6y
Plug 6y in for x in the first equation.
6y - y = 35
5y = 35
Divide both sides by 5
y = 7
x = 6y
x = 6(7) = 42
42 and 7

Since we had the answers we could have just tried the answers but you will not always have multiple choice so this is the method for solving.
Take measurements of what you want to draw, (e.g. a simple cube that is 100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm.)
A full scale drawing would require you to draw the cube on a paper 100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm.
If you want to 'scale', you would then redraw using new measurements. So, a 1/10 scale drawing would mean that you would redraw the cube on paper as 10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm.
A 1/20 scale would be 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm. The same concept holds for all scale drawings.
In this case it is to find the roots of the polynomial.
We have then:
2x ^ 2-5x + 1 = 3
Rewriting:
2x ^ 2-5x-2 = 0
Applying resolver we have
x = (- b +/- root (b ^ 2 - 4ac)) / (2a)
Substituting values:
x = (- (- 5) +/- root ((- 5) ^ 2 - 4 (2) (- 2))) / (2 (2))
x = (- (- 5) +/- root ((25 + 16)) / (2 (2))
x = (5 +/- root (41))) / (4)
x = ((5/4) +/- (root (41)) / 4)
Answer:
x = ((5/4) +/- (root (41)) / 4)
