2x + 4y = 14
4x + y = 20......multiply by -4
----------------
2x + 4y = 14
-16x - 4y = -80 (result of multiplying by -4)
---------------add
-14x = -66....as u can see, ur y's cancel out
so ur answer is : 1st answer choice <==
** and just so u know, u could have multiplied the 1st equation by -2, and it would have cancelled out ur x's
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- 3x-2y =7
- x+2y= -3
- 4x=4
- x=4/4
- x=1
- 3x-2y=7
- 3(1)-2y=7
- 3-2y=7
- -2y=7-3
- -2y=4
- 2y=-4
- y=-4/2
- y= -2
- Verify solution
- x+2y= -3
- 1+2y= -3
- 2y=-3-1
- 2y= -4
- y= -4/2
- y= -2
27 is the answer, I can explain how I got that if you need.
