Solve the system by the elimination method. 7x+5x=-25
5x+3y=-23

x = -10; y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)         7x +  5y =  -25

(2)        5x +  3y =  -23     Multiply (1) by 3

(3)       21x + 15y =  -75     Multiply (2) by 5

(4)      25x + 15y = -115     Subtract (3) from (4)

           4x          =  -40     Divide each side by 4

(5)         x          =   -10    Substitute (5) into (2)

     5(-10) +   3y =  -23

       -50  +   3y =  -23     Add 50 to each side

                    3y =   27      Divide each side by 3

                      y =     9

x = -10; y = 9

Check:

(1)  7(-10) + 5×9 = -25

       -70 +  45   = -25

                -25   = -25

(2) 5(-10) + 3×9 = -23

        50  + 27  = -23

                -23  = -23

just needed some points but try socratic

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
