Elimination
4x-7y=5
9x-7y=-15

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To make this easier to explain and easier to solve, we're going to first multiply the second equation of 9x-7y=-15 by -1 to make the y coefficient positive.

This results in -9x+7y=15.

When we line up the two equations on top of each other now, we'll see that both the first and second equations have opposite y coefficients, which is vital for elimination.

The next step is to add the second equation to the first one. Teachers may tell you to subtract, but I find it easier to add if you make the two y coefficients of negative value to each other.

    4x-7y=5

+ -9x+7y=15

   -5x+0y=20, or just -5x=20, because you have successfully eliminated the y         variable.

From there, you're going to solve like a normal equation (divide both sides by -5) toget you x=-4.

step-by-step explanation:

see below

step-by-step explanation:

x+2> 6

subtract 2 from each side

x+2-2 > 6-2

x > 4

there is an open circle at 4 since is it is greater than and the line goes to the right
