Answer is x = 12 :)

Operations you're supposed to do in order to solve this equation are:

1. Combine like terms

2. Subtract 12 from both sides

3. Simplify

4. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

5. Simplify.

A system of equations and its solution are given below.
Fittoniya [83]
Answer: Option <span>C. To get system B, the second equation in system A was replaced by the sum of that equation and the first equation multiplied by -3. The solution to system B will be the same as the solution to system A.

First equation of system A multiplied by -3:
(-3)(x+6y=5)
(-3)(x)+(-3)(6)=(-3)(5)
-3x-18=-15

Sum of the second equation of system A and the first equation multiplied by -3:
(-3x-18)+(3x-7y)=(-15)+(-35)
-3x-18+3x-7y=-15-35
-25y=-50

System B
x+6y=5
-25y=-50 </span>
