Answer:

x = 1/5, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 7

y = 7 - 5x

Set equations equal to each other to eliminate y

7 - 5x = 20x + 2

7 = 25x + 2

5 = 25x

x = 1/5

y = 7 - 5(1/5)

y = 7 - 1

y = 6

What if the following is the sum of both solutions of the equation....
LuckyWell [14K]

answer

D 2

factor

factor the equation x^{2} - 2x - 8 = 0  into (x + a)  and (x + b) so that a + b = -2 and a * b = -8

the two numbers that meet these conditions are a = -4 and b = 2

x^{2} - 2x - 8 = (x - 4)(x + 2)

find solutions

set both (x - 4) and (x + 2) equal to zero to find your solutions

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

add solutions

since the two solutions are x = 4 and x = -2, add them together to get your final answer

4 + (-2) = 2
