X=area of Sahara.
y=area of the Gobi Desert.
We suggest this system equations:
x+y=4000000
x=7y
solve by susbstitution method.
(7y)+y=4,000,000
8y=4,000,000
y=4,000,000 / 8=500,000
x=7y
x=7(500,000)=3,500,000
The area of Sahara=3,500,00 miles².
The area of the Gobi Desert=500,000 miles²
To check:
Te sum of their areas is : 3,500,000 miles²+500,000 miles²=4,000,000 miles²
Te area of sahara (3,500,000 miles²) is 7 times the area of the Gobi Desert (7*500,000 miles²=3,500,000 miles²).
The length is 2

Answer:
Y= -12
Step-by-step explanation:
6(y + 7) = 2(y - 3)
6y+42=2y-6
4y+42=-6
4y=-48
y=-12
Answer:
x = 10
y = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
if you add the equations as they are then the 'y-term' is eliminated:
60x = 600
x = 10
substitute x=10 to find value of 'y':
40(10) + 4y = 500
400 + 4y = 500
4y = 100
y = 25
Check:
20(10) - 4(25) should equal 100
200 - 100 = 100
100 = 100
