Use complete sentences to explain in detail how you would use the substitution method to solve the following system of equations
:
x = 4y
x + 2y = 12
Your description should include:
-how to find x
-how to find y
-the answer to the system
1 answer:
If we now that 4y equals to x, that means we can replace x with 4y.
Therefore we can write: 4y+2y = 12
We can summarize that to 6y = 12.
If we divide both sides with 6, you get y = 2
In order to solve for x, we can use the second equation and just replace y with value we just got (y=2).
We can write: x+2*2=12
Now you move 2*2 (which is 4) to the other side: x=12-4
Now you get: x = 8

Answer:
ummm i cant see the question it is sidewards
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x = 3, y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the y into the equation to get -2x=6x-24
8x=24 so x = 3. Then plug x=3 into the second equation to get y = -6
280 students have a total of 560 points
There 60 more boys(x+60) complete than girls(x)
2*(x+60)+2*x= 560
number of girl =x =110
girl point =110*2= 220
Let x = speed and y = distance
y = x * 45
y = (x - 4) * 70
45x = 70x - 280
-25x = -280
x = 11.2
Put it back into the first equation:
y = 11.2 x 45
y = 504miles
Hope this helps! Any questions let me know :)
