Question

11 x minus 3 y = negative 17. Negative 4 x + 3 y = negative 18. Negative 7 x = negative 35 Negative 7 x = 35 7 x = negative 35 7 x = 35

Answer 1

7 x = -35

Explanation:

Which equation results from adding the equations in this system? 11 x minus 3 y = -17. Negative 4 x + 3 y = - 18.

- 7 x = negative 35

- 7 x = 35

7 x = negative 35

7 x = 35

In this problem we need to add the equations below i.e.

11x-3y = -17 and -4x+3y=-18

Adding both equations,

11x-3y+(-4x)+3y = -17+(-18)

7x= -35

or

7 x = negative 35

Hence, the correct option is (c).
