Will give brainiest 2.find the values of x and y a. x=15 y=12 b. x=14 y=11 c. x=14 y=12 d. x=15 y=11

3x - 7 = 2x + 7

3x - 2x = 7 + 7

x = 14

2x + 7 + 12y + 1 = 180

2(14) + 7 +  12y + 1 = 180

12y + 36 = 180

12y = 144

y = 12

Answer

x = 14 and y = 12

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
