Use elimination to solve the system of equations. 10x + 5y = 55
y - 2x = -9
A. (1,1)
B. (1,5)
C. (5, 1)
D. (4,5)

C. (5,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+5y=55 equation 1

y-2x=-9 equation 2

y=-9+2x isolate y in equation 2

10x+5(-9+2x)=55 substitute value of y from equation 2 into equation 1

10x-45+10x=55

20x=100

x=5

solve for y by using x value (5) in either equation

y-2x=-9

y-2(5)=-9

y-10=-9

y=1

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
