If 2x+y=8 and x+2=5. what is the value of y?​

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2=5

x= 5-2

x= 3

2x+y=8

2×3+y=8

6+y=8

y=8-6

y=2

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve x+2=5 to find x.

x+2=5

  -2  -2

x=3. Substitute x=3 into 2x+y=8.

(2 x 3) + y = 8

Now solve.

6 + y = 8

-6         -6

y=2.

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

it would be 6xy and -16xy.
