Algebra I

  • Terms/Coefficients
  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y = x - 16

5y = 2x - 56

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Substitute in y: 5(x - 16) = 2x - 56
  2. Distribute 5: 5x - 80 = 2x - 56
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides: 3x - 80 = -56
  4. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 80 on both sides: 3x = 24
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 3 on both sides: x = 8

Step 3: Solve for y

  1. Define original equation: y = x - 16
  2. Substitute in x: y = 8 - 16
  3. Subtract: y = -8
