Hi. This is a bit lengthy so I am attaching an image that shows it worked out step by step. I hope it helps.
Take care,

System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] 5x - 6y = 7
[2] 6x - 7y = 8
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
-6y + 5x = 7 -7y + 6x = 8
Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 6x = 7y + 8
[2] x = 7y/6 + 4/3
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 5•(7y/6+4/3) - 6y = 7
[1] - y/6 = 1/3
[1] - y = 2
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = - 2
// By now we know this much :
x = 7y/6+4/3
y = -2
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = (7/6)(-2)+4/3 = -1
Answer:
600 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The side length of one of the faces is 10 cm
The length of a side is generally noted as s.
In this problem s = 10
Area of a cube face = s^2
So the area of one face of a cube = s^2 = 10^2 = 10*10 = 100
There are 6 faces on a cube.
Area = 6 * 100 = 600
5 times a number plus two is 17
5(x) + 2 = 17
isolate the x, do the opposite of PEMDAS
(Note: What you do to one side you do to the other, because of equal sign)
5x + 2 (-2) = 17 (-2)
5x = 15
5x/5 = 15/5
x = 3
hope this helps
