Let's solve your system by elimination.

8x+y=−16;3x−y=5

8x+y=−16

3x−y=5

Add these equations to eliminate y:

11x=−11

Then solve: 11x=−11 for x:

11x=−11

11x

11

=

−11

11

(Divide both sides by 11)

x=−1

Now that we've found x let's plug it back in to solve for y.

Write down an original equation:

8x+y=−16

Substitute: −1 for x in 8x+y=−16:

(8)(−1)+y=−16

y−8=−16(Simplify both sides of the equation)

y−8+8=−16+8(Add 8 to both sides)

y=−8

Answer:

x=−1 and y=−8

Answer:Multiply each equation by a suitable number so that the two equations have the same leading coefficient.

Subtract the second equation from the first.

Solve this new equation for y.

Substitute y = 2 into either Equation 1 or Equation 2 above and solve for x.

Find four consecutive natural numbers if you know that the product of the first two is 38 less than the product of the following
Fynjy0 [20]
<span>Because the four numbers are consecutive, we can call the first one x, and the other three are x+1, x+2, and x+3, respectively. x * (x+1) = (x+2) * (x+3) - 38 x^2 + x = x^2 + 5x +6-38 x^2 + x = x^2 + 5x - 32 -4x = -32 x=8 The four numbers are 8, 9, 10, and 11 check solution: 8*9=10*11-38 72=110-38 72=72</span>
