Answer:
x=1 y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
−5x+2y=9
y=7x
Substitute the second equation into the first
-5x +2(7x) = 9
Distribute
-5x +14x = 9
Combine like terms
9x=9
Divide by 9
9x/9 =9/9
x= 1
Now find y
y = 7(1)
y = 7
Answer:
[tex]x=1\\y=7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-5x+2y=9\\y=7x[/tex]
Replace y in the first equation.
[tex]-5x+2(7x)=9[/tex]
Distribute the 2 and combine like terms;
[tex]-5x+14x=9\\9x=9[/tex]
Divide by 9
[tex]x=\frac{9}{9}\\ x=1[/tex]
-----------------------------------------------
After having found x, you can replace it in any of the equations to find y. I'll use the second equation.
[tex]y=7x\\y=7(1)\\y=7[/tex]
