Systems of Equations. You can do substitution or elimination

(Elimination would probably be easiest for this), your call.

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

is a = 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hold on, i'll check.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5a = 20, a is equal to 4. You are correct! :)

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

and y is 3/2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now you can just substitute "A" back into the equation to find "B"! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, y = \[\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }\]

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

Thanks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
