Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given system:</u>
- 2x - y = - 2
- 15x - 2y = - 7
<u>Solve by elimination, multiply the first equation by - 2 and add up the equations:</u>
- -2(2x - y) + 15x - 2y = - 2(- 2) - 7
- -4x + 2y + 15x - 2y = 4 - 7
- 11x = - 3
- x = - 3/11
<u>Find the value of y:</u>
- 2( - 3/11) - y = - 2
- -6/11 - y = - 2
- y = 2 - 6/11
- y = 1/11
<u>Solution is:</u>
- <em>None of the answer choices is matching this solution. Something must be wrong with the given equations.</em>

Answer: The correr solution is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the steps in Lin's solution are not shown, we are not able to find her erros. However, we can solve it step by step and find the correct result:

Firstly, in the left part of the equation we have to multiply
by the numbers inside the parenthesis; and in the right side we have to solve first what is inside the parenthesis:

Adding similar terms in the left side and multiplying
by the number inside the parenthesis in the right side:

Isolating

This is the correct solution
Answer:
p = 23 and p = -22
Step-by-step explanation:
| 2p -1 | =45
Absolute value equations have 2 solutions, one positive value and one negative
2p-1 = 45 and 2p-1 = -45
Add 1 to all sides
2p-1+1 = 45+1 and 2p-1+1 = -45+1
2p = 46 2p = -44
Divide by 2
2p/2 = 46/2 and 2p/2 = -44/2
p = 23 and p = -22
Your answer would be 45 and 1/3
