Solve the following system of equations using the elimination method.
5x + y = 9

x= -1/5y+9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+y=9

Step 1

First you need to add -y to both sides, basically subtracting y

5x+y-y= 9-y

Step 2

Divide both sides by 5, or multiply by 1/5. You want to do this because to cancel out 5, so you multiply the reciprocal, or divide the constant.

1/5*5x=-y+9/5

Then, you will get the answer

Hope this helps, sorry if it is wrong, I am just 4th grade :(

But I am sure this is correct :)

a. 74 degrees

step-by-step explanation:

because the lines through the side and the box in the corners shows that these are congruent triangles and since they are mirrored the 37 degrees is also mirrored so the answer is 37 * 2 which is 74.
