If 8x−4y=20 and 4x−8y=4, what is the value of x−y? (a) 1 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 4 (e) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system:

8x−4y=20

4x−8y=4

Reduce the first equation by dividing every term by -2:

-4x + 2y = -10

and then combine this result with the second equation:

4x−8y=4

-4x + 2y = -10

      -6y = -6, and so y = 1.  

According to the first equation, if y = 1, then 4x - 8 = 4, or x = 3.

Then x = 3 and y = 1.

So, finally, x - y = 3 - 1 = 2

what do you need with. i love quadrants. can you tell me ?

answer: input the dimensions of the room to be painted. click the button to calculate the amount of paint and man-hours needed for this job.
