Please help! I'm stuck 1.)solve the system of equations by the substitution. X=-4y X+5y=2 A.)(-8,2) B.)(8,-2) C.)(2/9,-8/9) D.)(-12,3) 2.) solve the system of equations by elimination 3x+4y=31 2x-4y=-6 A.)(4,5) B.)(5,4) C.)(-5,12.5) D.)(5,-4)

Hello my names Hero, and ill take a look and se how i can help :) Just give me a sex to solve haha.

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sec to solve XD sorry typo.

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Lol it's ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm...so am i in general solving for x? I dont see the answers as x, and i mean i took algebra a couple years back so from what i cant tell, your looking for a specific point as an answer?

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol okay, i cant remember exactly how to solve this, give me 5 minuets to research and ill have you an answer ready :)

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first one should be (-8, 2). The main reason is because -4y for x in the equation, and then you simplify both sides of the equation to get 2. Then, you do the same, again, but backwards. This time, you do x = -4y and put 2 in for y, and solve to get -8 :).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does that help?

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Yes and what about the second one ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so using the info i jsut gave you, can you try to solve it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

basically, use the first equation to solve for x, then solve for y :)

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

I just need the answer.. I know how to do it just these two I can't find the answers for along with another question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay, well it should be 5, 4 for number 2 then :)

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Ok can I tag you in my last question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) sure.

OpenStudy (little.cherry23):

Ok I did
