Question

How can 1/6x − 5 = 1/5x + 2 be set up as a system of equations?

Answer 1

Are you solving for x?

Answer 2

You just gave 1 equation

Answer 3

@Astrophysics
1. 6 y − x = −30
5y − x = 10
2. 5y + x = −30
5y + x = 10
3. 6y − 6x = −30
5y − 5x = 10
4. 5y + 5x = −30
5y + 5x = 10

Answer 4

One problem at a time.

Answer 5

those are the answer choices

Answer 6

I don't understand, what exactly is the question

Answer 7

To rewrite y= 1/6x-5 and y=1/5x+2 as a system of equations

Answer 8

I got A :)

Answer 9

ohh

Answer 10

It's already a system of equation, but I see you just want to simplify it.

Answer 11

So you have \[y=\frac{ 1 }{ 6 }x-5\] so setting it up as they've showed you, so first move 1/6x to the left side how do you do that

Answer 12

1/6x=1/6x-5 ?

Answer 13

?

Answer 14

did you see the answer choices?

Answer 15

Yes

Answer 16

was A right?

Answer 17

So for your first one you have \[y-\frac{ 1 }{ 6 }x=-5\]

Answer 18

Honestly, if you're not interested in the process tell me now.

Answer 19

No, not really :) Sorry

Answer 20

Ok then, good luck!
