(4+3)(7-4) if you want the products to multiply each other
4+3(7-4) if you want to use the distributive property and simply have 3 multiplied but the simplification of 7-4 which is 3
Answer:
the answer to C. Is 3/8.
The answer to D. Is 5/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Get y in terms of x then substitute the expression into the other equation.
#7.
y - 2x = -6
y = 2x -6
y gets substituted for 2x - 6
5x - (2x - 6) = 9
5x - 2x + 6 = 9
3x + 6 = 9
3x = 9 - 6
3x = 3
x = 1
use this to find the other one
y - 2(1) = -6
y - 2 = -6
y = 2 - 6
y = -4
#8.
3y + x = 2
x = 2 - 3y
substitute x for 2 - 3y in the second equation
y - (2 - 3y) = -6
y - 2 + 3y = -6
4y - 2 = -6
4y = 2 - 6
4y = -4
y = -1
use this to find the other one
-1 - x = -6
-x = 1 - 6
-x = -5
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:

Solution
3(-x+(2x+1))=x-1
3(x+1)=x-1
3x+3=x-1 collect like terms
3x-x=-1-3
2x=-4 divide both side by 2
x=-4/2=-2
