Answer:

$x = - \frac{16}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x + 5}{x + 8} = \frac{3}{8}$

8 (x + 5) = 3 (x + 8)

8x + 40 = 3x + 24

8x - 3x = 24 - 40

5x = -6

x = -16 ÷ 5

x = -16/5

Solve.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

The solution is (4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Linear combination method to solve:

$2d + e = 8\\d - e = 4\\$

Since "e" have the same coefficient in both equation with opposite operator; we will add.

$(2d + d) + (e - e) = (8 + 4)\\3d = 12\\$

Divide both side by coefficient of d which is 3

$\frac{3d}{3} = \frac{12}{3} \\d = 4\\$

Since d = 4; put 'd' into any of the equation to get 'e'

$2d + e = 8\\2(4) + e = 8\\8 + e = 8\\e = 8 - 8\\e = 0\\$

Therefore, the solution is (4, 0)
