Solve the system using elimination,
2x - 3y = - 19
7x + 7y = 21

x = -2

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y = -19  (I)

7x+ 7y = 21  (II)

Multiply equation (I) by 7 and equation (II) by 3.Then add and so y will be eliminated and you will get the value of x

(I)*7              14x - 21y = - 133

(II)* 3           21x + 21y = 63          {Now add}

                   35x          = -70

                                x = -70/35

x = - 2

Plug in x = - 2 in equation (I)

2*(-2) - 3y = -19

-4 -  3y  = -19

     -3y = -19 + 4

     -3y = -15

         y = -15/-3

y = 5

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
