Solve this system using the linear combination method. Show your work.

4x + 2y = 5
−4x − 5y = 7

Let's solve for x.

4x+2y=5

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

4x+2y+−2y=5+−2y

4x=−2y+5

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.

Let's solve for x.

−4x−5y=7

Step 1: Add 5y to both sides.

−4x−5y+5y=7+5y

−4x=5y+7

Step 2: Divide both sides by -4.

step-by-step explanation:

consider an orange peel: if you want to try and lay it flat, you have to stretch it, we know exactly how things are being stretched or squashed at any given point. we have many different map projections because each has different patterns of some projections can even preserve certain features of the earth without
