The sum of five times a number and twice a second number is 18, but the difference of three times the first number and seven times the second number is -22. Find the two numbers using the elimination method. A. -2 and -4 B. -2 and 4 C. 2 and -4 D. 2 and 4

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

let the first number be x and second be y. and make two equations using the given condition.. solve the two equation simultaneously to get the two numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

righ?

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let answer another question alright ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve the system, using substitution. What is the x coordinate of the solution? x = 2y - 2 and 3x - y = 14 A. 6 B. 4 C. 1 D. 0 E. no solution

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

what is your answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got E

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that right ?

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

no..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what?

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

|dw:1427745032158:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 6 thats what i got

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have another one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve the system, using substitution. y = 1 - 5x and 5x + y = 8 A. no solution B. infinitely many solutions

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

same as previous put y = 1-5x in 5x+y =8 and see what you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got a

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the last 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve the system, using substitution. One point for correct steps, one point for correct ordered pair. x = 4y and 2x + 3y = 44

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

put x=4y in the eqn 2x + 3y =44 to get y .. from that y get x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont knwo this one help

OpenStudy (ankitshaw):

|dw:1427745426022:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know this one
