- 3х - 4y = 15 7x+y= 4 Substitution

Mathematics
1 answer:
Darya [45]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

3x-4y=15

7x+y=4

Solve7x+y=4 for y:

7x+y=4

7x+y+−7x=4+−7x (Add -7x to both sides)

y=−7x+4

Step: Substitute −7x+4 for y in 3x−4y=15:

3x−4y=15

3x−4(−7x+4)=15

31x−16=15 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

31x−16+16=15+16 (Add 16 to both sides)

31x=31

(Divide both sides by 31)

x=1

Step: Substitute 1 for x in y=−7x+4:

y=−7x+4

y=(−7)(1)+4

y=−3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer: x=1 and y=−3

Expand the expression ​-2.5(-3 + 4n + 8)
Anika [276]

Answer:

2.5+7.5+-10n+-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply everything on the inside by the number on the outside and put it together with addition signs.

-2.5(-3+4n+8)

-2.5*-3=7.5

-2.5(7.5+4n+8)

-2.5*4= -10

-2.5(7.5+-10n+8)

-2.5*8=-20

-2.5+7.5+-10n+-20
