Answer:
x=13, 16(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
For 38, you have to first divide both sides by 2.
This becomes, x-6=7
Add 6 to both sides
x=13.
For 40. You can can distribute the 8.
This makes it 16x-16.
With this you can than, factor out the 16.
16(x-1).
Answer:
x = 1
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
if y = x - 4
then reorganise the first equation
4 (x - 4) = 9x -21
4x - 16 = 9x - 21
5 = 5x
x = 1
