If you have a problem like:
4x+2y=20
2x+2y=16
You would subtract
4x-2y=20
-2x+2y=16
You would get the new problum
2x=4
You now want to divide the 2 on both sides to solve for x
x=2
Now that you've solved for X you want to solve for y. So use substitution to solve for y. You would want to substatute the x for the 2 in either of the problums. I'll use the first one.
4(2)+2y=20
You first want to multiply te 4(2) you would get a new problum.
8+2y=20
Now you want to subtract the 8 on both sides.
2y=12
The last step to solve for y is to divide the 2 on both sides.
Y=6
So your answers would be
x=2
y=6
Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
- 6x = 5x + 222
- 222 = 5x + 6x
11x = - 222
x = - 222 : 11
x = - 222/11

Answer:
160
Step-by-step explanation:
If there were only 2 options, all the people who didn't pick one chose the other one.
So if 25% of the people voted for the aquarium the remaing 75% voted for the zoo.
Since three times as many people voted for the zoo, we can see that 120/3=40, so 40 people chose the aquarium.
To find the total number of students, we add 120 and 40 to get <u>160</u>
