Solve the system: 4x - y = 5 x + 2y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - y = 5… Equation 1

x + 2y = 8 Equation 2

Make x the subject in equation 2 and substitute it into equation 1

That's

x = 8 - 2y

We have

4( 8 - 2y ) - y = 5

32 - 8y - y = 5

- 9y = - 27

Divide both sides by - 9

We have the final answer as

Substitute y = 3 into x = 8 - 2y

That's

x = 8 - 2(3)

= 8 - 6

Hope this helps you

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-y=5×1.

x+2y=8×4.

which will be

4x-y=5

- 4x+8y=32.

-9y=-27

-9. -9.

y=3.

then substitute into any equation...

equation one.

4x-3=5.

4x=5+3.

4x=8.

x=8/4.

x=2.

therefore y=3 and x=2.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
