Question

In the below system, solve for y in the first equation.

x – 3y = –6
2x – 7y = 10

a. x + 2

b.x + 6

c.–x + 2

d. x + 2

Answer 1

Substitution method?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

this is confusing to me because it says to solve for y for x – 3y = –6

If you do this you get

x – 3y = –6
x +6 = 3y

\[y=\frac{x}{3}+2\]

Answer 4

im sorry these are the answers
2x + y = 11
5x – 2y = –1

a. 2x + 11

b.–2x + 11

c. 2x – 11

d.–2x – 11

Answer 5

2x + y = 11
2x -2x + y = 11 -2x
