4x + 7 = 7x + 1
Subtract 4x from each side:
7 = 3x + 1
Subtract 1 from each side:
6 = 3x
Divide each side by 3:
2 = x

x = -1/3
(2, 1)
combine like terms. 3x+1+4x-5=31 3x+4x=7x 7x+1-5=31 1-5=-4 7x-4=31 then solve it 7x=35 x=5
4xy+1=3y-7x 4xy-3y=-7x-1 y(4x-3)=-7x-1 y=(-7x-1)/(4x-3)
4x + y = 9 so that y = 9 - 4x 7x - 8y = 6 7x - 8*(9-4x) = 6 7x - 72 + 32x = 6 39x = 78 x = 2 Then y = 9 - 4x = 9-4*2 = 9-8 = 1
