Answer:
x = -45, y = -40
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the first clue, we find out that
x + 5 = y
5x = 6y + 15
We can re-write the first equation to x = y - 5.
Therefore, the second equation can also be written as 5(y - 5) = 6y + 15
This can be simplified to 5y - 25 = 6y + 15
We can subtract 6y from each side, and add 25 to each side;
5y - 6y = 15 + 25
Therefore, -y = 40
Therefore y = -40.
Now let's plug this back into the original equation, to get : x + 5 = -40
x=-45
Answer:
The answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5 – 6x = 8x + 17
⇔ 5 - 17 = 8x + 6x
⇔ -12 = 14x
⇔ x = -6/7
