A. Alright, we want to multiply one equation by a constant to make it cancel out with the second. Since the first equation has a "blank" y, let's multiply the first equation by <em>2</em>.
3x-y=0 → 2(3x-y=0) = 6x - 2y = 0
5x+2y=22
The answer for this part would be: 6x - 2y = 0 and 5x + 2y = 22
B. So now we combine them:
6x - 2y = 0
+ + +
5x + 2y = 22
= = =
11x + 0 = 22 ← The answer
C. Now that we have the equation 11x = 22, we solve for x
11x = 22 ← Divide both sides by 11
x = 2 ← The answer
D. Now that we have x=2, we plug that back in to 5x+2y=22 and solve for y:
5(2)+2y = 22
10 + 2y = 22
2y = 12
y = 6
<u>Therefore, the solution to this problem is x = 2 and y = 6</u>

Answer: x=1,y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
X-2y=1.....equation 1
2x-y=2.....equation 2
X=1+2y.......equation 3
Substitute equation 3into 2
2(1+2y)-y=2
2+4y-y=2
2+3y=2
3y=2-2
3y=0
Y=0/3
Y=0
Substitute for y=0 in equation 1
X-2y=1
X-2(0)=1
X-0=1
X=1
X=1 & Y=0
For #7 - part a: greatest common factor (GCF) is 5.
Part b: cross out everything BUT 10 & 20.
Answer:
x=110° y=140°
Step-by-step explanation:
x=180°-70°
x=110°
x=110°
y=x+30°
y=110°+30°
y=140°
