Answer: x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
4 (-x+4)=12
(-4x+16)=12
-4x+16-16 =12-16
-4x/-4 =-4/-4
x=1

Okay. The equation is the way to figure out how much can be put into the suitcase.
What you do is substitute the various weights for w, and see if the equation is true.
So, 42 + w ≤ 50.
If you use the wieght of the books, 10lb, it looks like this: 42 + 10 ≤ 50. If you solve that, the equation isn't true, so you can't put the books into the suitcase.

Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
To start solving this, you want to solve an equation for y. I chose 3x - 7y = 4 for later purposes. Subtract 3x from both sides and divide by -7 to get y = 4 - 3x / -7. Now because we have a value for y in terms of x, plug this into the other equation, x + 7y = 16. It now should look like this: x + 7(4 - 3x / -7) = 16. Now just distribute the 7 and simplify the denominator to get x+ (-4+3x)=16. This can now be 4x +4 = 16, starting to look familiar now. Lastly subtract the 4 from both sides and divide by 4 to get x = 5. Hope this helps!
For this problem:
a= -6
b= -3
