Answer: Choice A. (8, 4)
==========================================================
Explanation:
Because x = 2y, we can replace every copy of x with 2y
Let's do so in the second equation
3x - 4y = 8
3(x) - 4y = 8
3(2y) - 4y = 8 .... x replaced with 2y; now let's isolate y
6y - 4y = 8
2y = 8
y = 8/2 ..... divide both sides by 2
y = 4
Use this y value to find x
x = 2y
x = 2*4
x = 8
So we have x = 8 and y = 4 pair together to get the answer (x,y) = (8, 4) which is choice A.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- x + y + z = -3 --> (1)
- 3y - z = 4 --> (2)
- 2x - y - 2z = -5 --> (3)
<u>Add up (1) and (2)</u>
- x + 3y + y + z - z = -3 + 4 ⇒ x + 4y = 1 --> (4)
<u>Double (2) and subtract from (3)</u>
- 2x - y - 2z - 2(3y - z) = -5 - 2(4) ⇒ 2x - y - 2z - 6y + 2z = -5 - 8
- 2x - 7y = -13 --> (5)
<u>Double (4) and subtract (5)</u>
- 2(x + 4y) - 2x + 7y = 2 + 13 ⇒ 2x + 8y - 2x + 7y = 15 ⇒ 15y = 15 ⇒ y = 1
<u>Finding x</u>
- x + 4(1) = 1 ⇒ x = 1 - 4 ⇒ x = -3
<u>Finding z</u>
<u>So the answer is: </u>
Answer:
75cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, I can't see a photo, so I'll have to assume that the description provides enough info.
10cm/2km = x/15km,
where x is the distance on the map (in centimeters) of a real-life distance of 15 kilometers.
10cm/2km = x/15km
10/2 = 5/1
This means we have to multiply 5 by 15 to find x.
x = 5 · 15
x = 75
Let's plug the new value back in...
10cm/2km = x/15km
10cm/2km = (75cm)/15km
<em>(Simplify each side to its simplest form)</em>
10cm/2km = 75cm/15km
5/1 = 5/1
It works! So x = 75cm.
Hope this helps! :)
