Answer:

x=21

y= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 28

x = 3y

Substitute the second equation into the first

3y+y = 28

4y = 28

Divide by 4

4y/4 = 28/4

y = 7

Now we need to find x

x = 3*y

x = 3*7

x = 21

How do I Graph y=  –73x+2 .
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

See attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

You can obtain any two points on the graph of y=-73x+2 and use it to draw its graph.

When x=0, y=-73*0+2=2

So you plot (0,2)

When x=1, y=-73*1+2=-71

You again plot (1,-71).

With a straight edge you can now draw a straight line through the two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

3^2 + 8 ÷ 2 - (4 + 3)

9 + 8 ÷ 2 - 7

next division, 8÷2=4

9 + 4 - 7

next addition, 9+4=13

13-7
