If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, choose the new equation after the expression equivalent to y from the second equation is substituted into the first equation.

2x − 7y = 4
3x + y = −17

a) 2(3x − 17) − 7y = 4
b) 2(−3x − 17) − 7y = 4
c) 2x − 7(3x − 17) = 4
d) 2x − 7(−3x − 17) = 4

option D

2x − 7(−3x − 17) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equations

Equation 1

2x - 7y = 4

Equation 2

3x + y = -17

Rearranging equation 2 in terms of y

3x + y = -17

y = -17 - 3x

Put this value of y in Equation 1

2x - 7y = 4

2x - 7(-17 - 3x) = 4

So,

If you use the substitution method to solve the following system, new equation will be

2x - 7(- 3x - 17) = 4

Answer: question no. 1 -a. yes, the sides are in the ratio 2 : 5.question no. 2 -b. 59°question no. 3 -c. angles x and y are remote interior angles.question no. 4 -d. 90°, 45° and 45°question no. 5 -b. mn and qrstep-by-step explanation: question no. 1 -rs : xu = 3 : 7.5 = 2 : 5rt : x? = 6.4 : 16 = 2 : 5st : u? = 6 : 15 = 2 : 5as the ratios of all sides are equivalent, the triangles must be congruent and the sides must be proportional.therefore, the answer is: a. yes, the sides are in the ratio 2 : 5.question no. 2 -in the second diagram, angle b is the only letter not shown. therefore, the number must be equivalent to angle b.if we substitute the value of angle b as being 22° in the first diagram, we can now use the angle sum of a triangle to obtain the value of angle a.angle sum of a triangle = 180°therefore: let angle a = aa + 99 + 22 = 180a = 180 - 99 - 22a = 59°therefore, the answer is: b. 59°question no. 3 -angles x and y don't share the vertex of the triangle with the exterior angle w. remote interior angles don't share a vertex of a triangle with an exterior angle. this means that angles x and y are remote interior angles.therefore, the answer is: c. angles x and y are remote interior angles.question no. 4 -the sum of all interior angles of a triangle must be equivalent to 180°.90°, 45° and 45° are the only set of angle measures that are equivalent to 180°.therefore, the answer is: d. 90°, 45° and 45°question no. 5 -the only pair of sides stated in the options which are corresponding are mn and qr.therefore, the answer is: b. mn and qr.
