y = 12x + 5x - 7 Since '12x' and '5x' both have the same variable, you are able to combine them. To do this you just need to add 12 + 5 to get 17. After doing this you can rewrite the equation as y = 17x - 7. You can then solve this equation for different values by plugging in a number for 'x' or 'y' or graphing the equation.

That equation has no solution. There is no possible number that's equal to 18 more than itself.
(3)(2)(2)5x=60 12(5x)=60 12(5x)/12=60/12 5x=5 x=1
First, change 2x+6y=32 to x+3y=16. Then solve for x, which is x=-3y+16. Then substitute -3y+16 as x into 5x-2y=12 and solve for y. 5(-3y+16)-2y=12 -15y+80-2y=12 -17y+80=12 -17y=-68 y=4 Then substitute 4 as y in either equation to solve for x. 5x-2(4)=12 5x-8=12 5x=20 x=4 The answer is x=4 and y=4, or (4,4)

You need another equation to make this a linear equation so you can solve for both variables. One equation with two variables is not enough to determine the correct answer.
First, change 2x+6y=32 to x+3y=16. Then solve for x, which is x=-3y+16. Then substitute -3y+16 as x into 5x-2y=12 and solve for y. 5(-3y+16)-2y=12 -15y+80-2y=12 -17y+80=12 -17y=-68 y=4 Then substitute 4 as y in either equation to solve for x. 5x-2(4)=12 5x-8=12 5x=20 x=4 The answer is x=4 and y=4, or (4,4)

5x - 11 - 36 is a math equation. 5x - 11 -36 can be simplified to read 5x- 47. I suspect that there is an equals missing, ie the question was/should be: "Solve for x in 5x - 11 equals -36" 5x - 11 = -36 → 5x = -25 → x = -5
5x+y=-7 3x+y=15 8=D
To solve an equation with three unknowns, x, y and z, you require 3 independent equations.
It is a linear equation in the variable x. You can solve for x using algebra: -5x + 3 = -22 -5x = -25 -x = -5 x = 5
