You can set up an system of equations
x=2y+8
x-y=25
Substitute x in to the second equation
2y+8-y=25
y+8=25
y=17
Substitute the y back in to the first equation.
x=2(17)+8=42
if I know how to do this I this it's y27 oh I know I wrong But it was worth a try right
Step-by-step explanation:
idffffk
If you were to factor you would do what my teacher likes to call reverse foil so it would look like this (x-9)(x+4) so what you do is you brainsrorm to see what multiplies what to get that and 9*4=36 so that is how you factor -36 to find the -9
Hope this helps if I'm correct if not I will try to find the answer
