7) Solve the following system of equations below algebraically using substitution.
8x - 4y = 7
x + y = 8

x = 3.25

y =4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to Solve the following system of equations below algebraically using substitution method we say that;

let;

8x - 4y = 7 equation 1

x + y = 8 equation 2

from equation2

x + y = 8 equation 2

x = 8 - y equation 3

substitute for x in equation 1

8x - 4y = 7 equation 1

8(8-y) - 4y = 7

64-8y-4y=7

64-12y=7

collect the like terms

64-7 = 12y

57= 12y

divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 12

57/12 = 12y/12

4.75 = y

y =4.75

put y = 4.75 in equation 3

x = 8 - y equation 3

x = 8 -4.75

x = 3.25

to check if your answer is correct, put the value of x and y in either equation 1 or 2

from equation 2

x + y = 8 equation 2

3.25 + 4.75 =8

8=8 proved

the correct answer is a) they believe they have a "just cause."

islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

every act of terrorism of islamic sects is done “in the name of allah”. that justifies their actions. islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. that is why the attacks have horrible consequences. they know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

since the very beginning of the conflict with israel, islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the qur’an. they fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.
