Answer:
x= −2 /7 y+ −17 /7
Explanation:
well 3y and -y together make 2y. 2x and 5x make 7x. -5 and -12 make -17. then you get 7x+2y=-17. Let's solve for x.
7x+2y=−17
Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.
7x+2y+−2y=−17+−2y
7x=−2y−17
Step 2: Divide both sides by 7.
7x
7 = −2y−17 /7
x= −2 /7 y+ −17 /7
x= −2 /7 y+ −17 /7
