Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
x + 2y = 27 → (1)
2x + 3y = 46 → (2)
Rearrange (1) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 2y from both sides
x = 27 - 2y ← substitute into (2)
2(27 - 2y) + 3y = 46
54 - 4y + 3y = 46
54 - y = 46 ( subtract 54 from both sides )
- y = - 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
y = 8 → D
Answer:
A.) x-y=2 and x+2y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
For option A, we have:
x-y=2
x+2y=-2
Subtract the first equation from the second, to get:
2y--y=-2-2
This implies that:
2y+y=-2-2
Simplify to get:
3y=-4
Divide both sides by 3 to get:

We substitute y=-1.3 into the first equation to get:
x--1.3=2
x+1.3=2
x=2-1.3
x=0.7
The solution is (0.7,-1.3), which is approximately (0.7, -1.4)
By inspection, all the other factors have solutions not close to (0.7, -1.4)

Answer:
0 - 10x + 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(5x - 0.75)
Expand the bracket
-10x + 1.5
0 - 10x + 1.5 is the equivalent expression
