Multiply the first equation by -1 to get -4x - y = --5
Then add the second equation 3x + y = 3
+ ____________
-x = -2 or x = 2
then plug in 2 for x in one of the equations and solve for y 4(2) + y = 5
8 + y = 5
Subtract 8 from both sides y = -3
So x = 2, y = -3 or (2,-3)

Brother's weight * 5/8 = 110
Brother's weight * 5/8÷5/8 = 110÷ 5/8
Brother's weight = 176
Answer: 225 students would have at least one sibling.
Step-by-step explanation:
Three out of four is the same as 3/4 meaning that if there are 300 students in your school then 3/4 times 300 will give the number of students with at least one sibling.
3/4 * 300 = 225
This means 225 students would have at least one sibling.
