Answer 1

c is the right answer

Explanation:

Answer 2

C

Explanation:

x + 2y = 6

isolate x through

x = 6-2y . . . (iii)

Substitute equation (iii) in equation (i)

7x - y = 7

7(6 - 2y) - y = 7

42 - 14y - y = 7

42 - 15y = 7

Collecting Like terms

-15y = 7 - 42

-15y = -35

-15y = -35

-15 -15

y = 7

3

y =

`2(1)/(3)`

Substitute y in equation (iii)

x = 6 - 2y

x = 6 - 2 × 7

3

x = 6 - 14

3

x =

`1(2)/(3)`
