The Article states:
Alonso got a big burst of inspo on his vacay after he unplugged all week: He
decided to become a pickleball player. Alonso imagines himself looking swole on
a bluebird day. He sees stans everywhere as he scores in a heart-stopper. His
friends all think "how on-brand of him" to want to become a pickleball player.
After all, he joined the circus last year. And look how that turned out. But how
could Alonso have known that he'd get coulrophobia?

Why did the author include this passage?

x=4, y=4

step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-4;

x+2y=12

we can use substitution since the first equation is solved for y

where ever you see y in the second equation, replace it with 2x-4

x + 2(2x-4) = 12

distribute the 2

x+4x-8 = 12

combine like terms

5x-8=12

add 8 to each side

5x-8+8=12+8

5x=20

divide by 5

5x/5 = 20/5

x =4

we still need to solve for y

y = 2x-4

we know x =4

y = 2(4) -4

y = 8-4

y=4

the purpose in this excerpt is that you should never do things like that because according to the bible, if you have more than one wife it's wrong and a huge sin. i hope this .
