2x + x + 4 +2x = x + 20 5x + 4 = x + 20 5x - x = 20 - 4 4x = 16 x = 4
2x + 4y = 16 <=> 2x + 4y - 16 = 0 2x - 4y = 0 2x - 4y = 2x + 4y - 16 -8y = -16 y = 2 Substituting the known value for y in either of the original equations enables x to be determined. 2x + (4*2) = 16 : 2x = 16 - 8 : x2x = 8 : x = 4 2x - (4*2) = 0 : 2x - 8 = 0 : 2x = 8 : x = 4. The ordered pair satisfying both equations is (4,2)
What is X if 2x + 4 = 36 What is X ? 2x + 4 = 36
If X = 4 then 2X = 2 x 4, which is 8
If 3X - 4 ------ = 0 1-2X-4 So 3X - 4 ----- = 0 [ x (2X-3) ] 2X-3 3X-4 = 2X-3 [ -2X ] X - 4 = -3 [ +4 ] X= 1
