How do I solve this problem using the substitution method
x-3y=4
4x-2y=26

x=7

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to use substitution you need to get one of the equations to have a variable by itself. I'm going to use the first one and get x by itself.

x-3y= 4  So firstly add the 3y to both sides since you want x alone.

 +3y  +3y

x=3y+4

Now that you have x alone you can plug this into the second equation for x.

4(3y+4)-2y=26

Next distribute the 4 to both terms inside the parenthesis.

4(3y)+4(4)-2y=26    Simplify.

12y+16-2y=26         Now add or subtract your like terms together (12y-2y).

10y+16=26              Next subtract 16 from both sides.

     -16  -16

10y=10                   Finally, to get y alone divide by 10 on both side.

y=1

To find x you plug y back into one of the equations you started with. I'm using x-3y=4  Again.

x-3(1)=4        Distribute the -3 to the one.

x-3=4           Now add 3 to both sides.

+3 +3

x=7

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00
