19x+18y+5+18x-8y-17=35 is this correct?

Question

checking to see if i did this one right i came up w 52-17=35

Answer 1

No it is not correct because you forgot to fill in the variables (X and Y). "Plug-In" the numbers and re-do the question, it will come out different

Answer 2

19x+18y+5+18x-8y-17=35

so first you have to combine like terms add the x's with the x's first.

19x+18x=37x

next you add the y's

18y-8y=10y

then you should have 37x + 10y +5 - 17=35

so then add 5-17=-12

then subtract -12 to the other side of the equation so...basically it's adding 12 to 35=47

so the FINAL ANSWER= 37x + 10y =47

Answer 3

19x + 18y + 5 + 18x - 8y - 17 = 35

37x + 10y = 47

Solving for x:

37x = 47 - 10y

x = (47 - 10y)/37

Solving for y:

10y = 47 - 37x

y = (47 - 37x)/10
