What is the value of x in the solution to this system of equations?
3x = 2y + 14
y = -6x + 18

x = 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Arrange both equations so that the constant is isolated

3x - 2y = 14

6x + y = 18

2. Multiply both sides of first equation by a value that will cancel out a variable when added to the second equation

(-2) 3x - 2y = 14 (-2)

-6x + 4y = -28

3. Add both equations together

  -6x + 4y = -28

+  6x  +  y   =  18

    0x + 5y  = -10

4. Simplify

5y = -10

y = -2

5. Substitute y-value into one of the original equations to solve for x

3x = 2y + 14

3x = 2(-2) + 14

3x = -4 + 14

3x = 10

x = 10/3

i got 86 for this

hope this !

if you need an explanation just ask

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
