[tex]y =16[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The attached image
Required
Find x and y
From the sign on each line, we have:
[tex]y - 4 = x + 5[/tex]
[tex]2x + 5 = x + 12[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]2x-x=12 - 5[/tex]
[tex]x = 7[/tex]
We have: [tex]y - 4 = x + 5[/tex]
Substitute [tex]x = 7[/tex]
[tex]y - 4 = 7+5[/tex]
[tex]y - 4 = 12[/tex]
So:
[tex]y = 12+4[/tex]
[tex]y =16[/tex]
