Question

Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair.

y = 3x + 2
y = x + 12

A. (5, 17)
B. (0, 12)
C. (0, 2)
D. (3, 2)

Answer 1

@ParthKohli Already showed you how to do it. Go to your last problems and see the work.

Answer 2

\(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow 3x + 2 = x + 12 }\)

\(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow 3x = x + 10 }\)

\(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow 2x = 10 }\)

\(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow x = 5 }\)

y = x + 12. Clearly,

\(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow y = 12 + 5 }\)

\(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow y = 17 }\)

@Romero thanks :), but he wants to check them.
