Hi there!
In order to solve, you can use substitution. This means that you use one equation and solve for one variable, then use that one equation and plug it into the other equation. Here's how we'd do it:
WORK:
x = 12 - y (since x is already solved for, we'll use that to plug into the other given equation.
2(12 - y) + 3y = 29 (using substitution)
24 - 2y + 3y = 29
24 + y = 29
y = 5
Plug the value of y back into the first equation
x = 12 - 5
x = 7
ANSWER:
A - x = 7, y = 5

Answer:
3. a. The constant rate of change is -1. The graph shows the hawk diving 10 feet closer to its prey every second.
Step-by-step explanation:
The addition property of equality justifies this. You could also say that she simply subtracted 7, and then it would be the subtraction property of equality. This is the case because if you add or subtract (or multiply or divide) the same number on both sides of an equation, the equation will still be the same.
Hope it helps!
