subtracting one from the other

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations are not well written. Let us assume the equations are:

2x + y = 7 1

2x + 2y = 5 2

Looking at the two equations, using elimination method will be the best way to go.

Since the coefficient of the variable x are the same, we can take the difference of both equation to cancel out the variable x and get y as shown;

(2x-2x) + (y-2y) = 7-5

0 - y = 2

y = -2

Note that you can only subtract if the coefficient of the variables in both equations have the same coefficient (same sign) and add if they have different signs

the answer is c.

for continuous functions, they continue in the same pattern and you have to find that pattern kinda like slope
