Answer: x = 2

Concept:

There are three general ways to solve systems of equations:

  1. Elimination: Eliminating a variable by addition or subtraction when all equations have the variable.
  2. Substitution: Combining two equations when one variable is isolated into one side.
  3. Graphing: Find the intersection point of equations to get the solution.

Here, we are going to use the method of <u>substitution </u>because [y] is isolated onto the left-hand side.

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

y = 7x - 9

y = 3x - 1

<u>Combine both equations by substitution</u>

7x - 9 = 3x - 1

<u>Subtract 3x on both sides</u>

7x - 9 - 3x = 3x - 1 - 3x

4x - 9 = -1

<u>Add 9 on both sides</u>

4x - 9 + 9 = -1 + 9

4x = 8

<u>Divide 4 on both sides</u>

4x / 4 = 8 / 4

\boxed{x=2}

Hope this helps!! :)

When the expression 10^2021 − 2021 is evaluated, the result is a very large number.
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

18,176

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure out an easier thing to do: 1000 - 2021 = 9,797.

Therefore, our answer will be like 9999999999999999999999997979. Out of all of these digits, there are only 2 that arent nines. We know the amount of digits since it's 10^2021 power. We will have one less since we are subtracting 2021. Therefore, 2020 digits in total. Now we know of those 2020 digits, 2 of them are 7, therefore 2018 of them are 9s. That means do 2018(9) + 2(7) = 14 + 18,162 =  18,176.
