Answer:
Solution: (-4, 2), x= -4 and y =2
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x - y = 30
-2y = x
Substitute for x
-8*(-2y) - y = 30
16y - y = 30
15y = 30
y = 30/15 = 2
Then x = -2y = -2*(2) = -4
Solution: (-4, 2), x= -4 and y =2
Combine the two equations in the right amounts to eliminate y :
-2 (2x + 3y) + (3x + 6y) = -2 (17) + 30
-4x - 6y + 3x + 6y = -34 + 30
-x = -4
x = 4
Solve for y :
2x + 3y = 17
8 + 3y = 17
3y = 9
y = 3
Answer:the correct answer is b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Y=7+3x, x=-3, y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-5y=1. Equation 1
3x-y=-7. Equation 2
-y=-7-3x isolate for y in equation 2
y=7+3x multiplied by -1 to get positive y
3x-5(7+3x)=1 substitute y value of equation 2 (7+3x) into equation 1
3x-35-15x=1
-12x=36
x=-3
solve for y.
3x-5y=1
3(-3)-5y=1
-9-5y=1
-5y=10
y=-2
