Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = x + 7
y = (-x) + 2
X + 7 = (-x) + 2
X + X = 2 - 7
2x = (-5)
<h3>x = (-5)/2 </h3>
Putting the value of X in equation
Y = (-5/2) + 7
Y = (-5)/2 + 7/1
Equalising the denominator by Taking LCM
Y = (-5)/2 +14/2
Y = ( -5 +14)/2
<h3>Y = (9)/2 </h3>
2.23606797749979
or round it to 2.2
Answer: x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Set the two given expressions equal to each other (because the problem says they are interchangeable)
-5x = -40+3x
2. Subtract 3x from -5x to have x on one side of the equation.
-8x = -40
3. Divide each side by -8 to get the value of x.
x = 5
