You can put this solution on YOUR website!
There are different ways to solve thewe, one way is by substitution; where one equation is solved t\for one variable and that solutin is substituted into the second equation. I will solve a few, then you try and do the rest.
Solve one equation for one variable;
1)x+5y=4 (eq.1)
3x-7y=-10 (eq.2)
Lets start by solving eq.1 for x;
x=4-5y (eq.3)
Now substitute eq.3 into the other equation and solve for y;
3(4-5y)-7y=-10
12-15y-7y=-10
12-22y=-10
-22y=-10-22
-22y=-22
y=1
Now you have what y equals, so you are going to plug that into eq.1 and solve for x;
x+5(1)=4
x+5=4
x=4-5
x=-1
So the answer; x=-1, y=1
2)-5x+3y=6 (eq.1)
x-y=4 (eq.2)
x-y=4
x=4+y (eq.3)
-5(4+y)+3y=6
-20-5y+3y=6
-20-2y=6
-2y=6+20
-2y=26
y=-13
x-y=4 (eq.2)
x-(-13)=4
x+13=4
x=4-13
x=-9
x=-9, y=-13
Now try and solve the others on your own, if you are still having problems, let me know.
