Answer:
x= 2 and y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 3y = 4 ---------------------------------(1)
-7x + 5y = -34 -----------------------------(2)
Multiply through equation (1) by 5 and multiply through equation(2) by 3
40x + 15y = 20 ----------------------------(3)
-21x + 15y =-102----------------------------(4)
Subtract equation (4) from equation (3)
61x = 122
Divide both-side of the equation by 61
61x/61 = 122/61
(At the left-hand side of the equation 61 will cancel-out 61 leaving us with just x, while at the left-hand side of the equation 122 will be divided by 61)
x = 122/61
x=2
Substitute x= 2 into equation (1)
8x + 3y = 4
8(2) + 3y = 4
16 + 3y = 4
Subtract 16 from both-side of the equation
16-16 + 3y = 4-16
3y = -12
Divide both-side of the equation by 3
3y/3 = -12/3
y = -4
x= 2 and y = -4
The answer is negative two
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x + 1 = -80
-9x = -81 substract 1 from both sides
x= 9 divide both sides by -9
Answer:
-1 1/2 and -1 3/4 on the number line.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you find -1 on the number line. Then you add 1/2 which is also 2/4. You find it by going two places from -1 to the right.
Then you do the same for -1 3/4. You start at -1 and move 3 places to the right.
