solve by substitution method 3x+4y=18. x=30-4y
x=-6 y=9
3 ( 30 - 4y) + 4y = 18
can u show me the steps. it got to where i plug is 30-4y
U have to substitute the x by the value 30 - 4y
3x + 4y = 18 and x = 30 - 4y so replace the x of 3x by (30 - 4y) 3(30 - 4y) + 4y = 18 90 - 12y + 4y = 18 -8y = 18-90 y = -72/-8 y = 9
yea ive gotten to where I sub that in. do i combine like terms next
put y=9 in other equation
awsome ive gotten those steps down .
now put y = 9 in 3x + 4y = 18 3x + 4(9) = 18 3x = 18-36 x = -18/3 x = -6
@tena i hv posted the detailed solution above.......... got a GOOD ANS
i actually got this right lol
good for u then....
thanks soo much so the solution is (-6,9) or is the other way around
