X=2y-47x+5y=-66 what is the x- value​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gwar [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2y - 4 --- Equation 1

7x + 5y = -66 --- Equation 2

I will be using the substitution method to solve this.

Substitute x = 2y - 4 into Equation 2:

7x + 5y = -66

7(2y - 4) + 5y = -66

Evaluate.

14y - 28 + 5y = -66

Evaluate like terms.

19y - 28 = -66

Isolate 19y.

19y = -66 + 28

     = -38

Find y.

y = -38 ÷ 19

y = -2 --- Equation 3

Substitute y = -2 into Equation 1:

x = 2y - 4

x = 2(-2) - 4

Evaluate.

x = -4 - 4

x = -8

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

12 Pencils Sharpened

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sharpener receptacle is emptied out 2 times every day.

Do 24*2 to get 48 pencils sharpened each day.

Now do 48/20 to get how many pencils a single person sharpens each day. Resulting in 2.4 pencils each day for 1 person.

Multiple 2.4 by 5 (Amount of days) to get 12 pencils in 5 days.

What is the value of x
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Assuming the other side is 30, x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

X+(X+6)=30

2x+6=30   (open the brackets by distributing the plus sign inside)

2x=24       (subtract 6 from both sides)

x=12          divide both sides by 12

This makes sense because of x is 6, and x+6 is 18, 6+18=30.
