Writing a System of Linear Equations Try it
Elliot has a total of 26 books. He has 12 more fiction books than nonfiction books. Let x represent the number of
fiction books and y represent the number of nonfiction books. Which system of linear equations represents the
situation?
O x + y = 26 and x + y = 12
O x + y = 26 and x - y = 12
x + y = 26 and -x + y = 12
O x-y= 26 and x + y = 12

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1
