Question

Solving this problem using any method y= -2x +5
2y+4x=6

Answer 1

What method do you want to try? How about the easiest :D

Answer 2

elimination ??

Answer 3

Well we can try plugging the first equation for Y correct because its already in the form Y=MX+B

Answer 4

Is that right ?

Answer 5

Answer 6

You forgot the negative

Answer 7

Sorry, got busy :D

Answer 8

its okay

Answer 9

4x+10=4x+6?

Answer 14

Incorrect

Answer 15

what looks wrong there?

Answer 16

-4x+10=4x+6

Answer 17

and? look at the positive 4

Answer 18

what I'm getting confuse so is it right -4x+10=4x+6

Answer 19

the 4x is on the wrong side

Answer 20

Left or right ?

Answer 21

look at the oringal

Answer 22

equation

Answer 23

10=4x+6+4x

Answer 24

look at the original equation

Answer 25

10= -4x + 6+4x

Answer 26

Well the correct format of your answer is
-4x+10+4x=+6

Answer 27

Those litle things cause a lot to a problem.

Ok what do we do next? HINT: PEMDAS

Answer 28

subtract 4x to both sides

Answer 29

?

Answer 30

No, when like terms are on the same side of the = sign, then we just do what it shows us so we add not subtract. So we do -4x+4x

Answer 31

Equals 0

Answer 32

So what do we have left?

Answer 33

And is there any answer choices ?

Answer 34

10=6 so there is no solution ?

You're Welcome

Answer 43

Hey one last question how do I rewrite the second equation ?

Answer 44

2y+4x=6

Answer 45

Rewrite it into what form?

Answer 46

y=mx+b

Answer 47

?

Answer 48

@jagr2713

Answer 49

Sorry was busy but to transfer it in y=mx+b we flip it around and put it in the y=mx+b form. What do we have after doing this?

Answer 50

oh its okay and it would be y=4x+2=6?

Answer 51

No, when we are flipping it around, x is going to the other side of the = so it becomes - so we have
2y=-4x+6

Solve from here :D

Answer 52

Divide by 2

Answer 53

Correct, what do we get for the final answer?
