(2) + (2)
=> 8x - 6y = -46 ———(3)
(1) + (3)
=> 5x + 6y + (8x - 6y) = 20 - 46
=> 13x + (6-6)y = -26
=> 13x + 0y = -26
=> 13x = -26
=> x = -26/13
=> x = -2
=> 5(-2) + 6y = 20
=> 6y = 20 + 10
=> 6y = 30
=> y = 5
x = -2, y = 5 => C
A/4=11/2 if you take 4/2 it equals 2 so you times the numerator and the denomerator by 2 and 11*2 equals 22 so the answer is a=22
Answer:
r = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(8r + 5) = 24 + 9r
16r + 10 = 24 + 9r
16r - 9r = 24 - 10
7r = 14
r = 2
