The distribution property is the best justification.
<span>y=x-4
y=-x+6
---------------------
Substitute x - 4 for y in </span>y=-x+6
x-4=-x+6<span>
--------------------------------
Add X on each side
</span><span>x-4+x</span>=-<span>x+6+x
</span>2x - 4 = 6
--------------------------------------
Add 4 on each side
<span>2x-4+4</span>=<span>6+4
</span>2x = 10
------------------------------------------------
Divide by 2 on each side
2x ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 2
x = 5
Now we have X
================================================================
To find Y we substitute 5 for x in y=<span>x-<span>4
</span></span>y = 5 - 4
y = 1
-----------------------------------------------------
Your answers are Y = 1 and X = 5
Subtract the second equation from double the first equation:
2x+6y-2x-(-4y)=0
10y=0
Therefore, y=0. Substituting this into the first equation, we see that:
x+3(0)=3
x=3
Therefore, x=3. The solution to this system is x=3, y=0, or (3, 0).
Answer: No
Step-by-step explanation: It is irrational because 61 is a prime number.
Answer:
4(2n-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know Valerie has 5 less than double the number of brad's books. Brad has n books, so make that 2n to double it.
Because she has 5 less than that, the expression is now 2n-5. The is the total of Valerie's books.
We know that Brad has 4 times the number of Valerie's books, so just multiply that expression by 4.
The final answer is 4(2n-5).
You're welcome. :)
