14x - 129 (I think I’m so sorry if it’s wrong)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
10/7 = 1.4285
9/y = 1.4285
Multiply both sides by y.
9 = 1.4285y
Divide both sides by y.
6.3 = y
3.6 * 10^(-3) is the scientific notation
12x - 8y = -12
6x + 4y = -30
Multiply the 2nd equation by 2, to make the Y coefficients opposite:
6x + 4y = -30 x 2 = 12x + 8y = -60
Now add the two equations:
12x -8y = -12 + 12x +8y = -60
= 24x = -72
Divide bothe sides by 24 to solve for x:
x = -72/24
x = -3
Now replace x with -3 in the first equation to solve for y:
12(-3) - 8y = -12
-36 - 8y = -12
Add 36 to each side:
-8y = 24
Divide both sides by -8 to solve for y:
y = 24 / -8
y = -3
X = -3 and y = -3
(-3,-3)
