  (x, y) = (2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put the second equation into standard form by dividing by -2.

  x -2y = -2

Adding this to the first equation eliminates x

  (x -2y) +(-x -y) = (-2) +(-4)

  -3y = -6

  y = 2 . . . . . divide by -3

  -x -(2) = -4 . . . . substitute for x in the first equation

  2 = x . . . . . . . . add 4+x

The solution is (x, y) = (2, 2).

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get

sinn is the total amount of students now and m were the students before, you subtract them both (n-m) and divide that by m. then, since to get a percentage from a fraction you have to multiply by 100, your answer should look like this: n-m/m*100
