Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of linear equations Negative 5 x + y = 26 and 2 x minus 7 y = 16?

9514 1404 393

  (-6, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're going to use technology to answer your questions, you may as well use appropriate technology: a graphing calculator. It shows the solution to the system is the ordered pair (-6, -4).

The first of the given equations can be solved for y, then that used to substitute for y in the second equation.

  y = 5x +26

  2x -7(5x +26) = 16

  2x -35x -182 = 16

  -198 = 33x . . . . . . . . add 33x-16

  -6 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 33

  y = 5(-6) +26 = -4 . . . find y

The solution is (x, y) = (-6, -4).

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to separate 54 into 6 individual tiers then you need to divide if you want to separate 54 into 6 individual tiers then you need to divide 6 and 54.

if you divide 9 by 6 you will get 54.
