What is the first step to solve the following system of equations using substitution?I'm x−y=72 x−y=17

1. Solve the first equation for x.
2.Divide the second equation by 2.
3.Multiply the first equation by 2.
4.Add the two equations together.

well how you put it together but the answer will b 2x-2y=89

Step-by-step explanation:

you have 2 x and 2 y and then 72 and 17

solve the first equation for x

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: do we write it

step-by-step explanation:

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x

2  

x

​    

=240

=48
