Question

solve using substitution method
y=x+2, y-x=8

Answer 1

Do you know how to substitute?

Answer 2

well this is what I have done dont know if I am doing it right.
(x+2) -x=8

Answer 3

2x-x =8
x=8

Answer 4

OK, so y = x + 2. That means that in the second equation, you can replace y with the expression x + 2.

So
y - x = 8
becomes
(x + 2) - x = 8
which becomes
2 = 8
which is false.

Hmm. Are you sure you copied the problem correctly? If so, then you might just have a false set of equations!

Answer 5

Same thing here. The problem you're doing in the comments is different.

Answer 6

I will look and come right back.but I believe it is y=x+2, y-x=8

Answer 7

if a system has an infinite number of solutions, use set-builder notation to write the solution set. If a system has no solution, state this.
Solve using the substitution method
y = x + 2,

y − x = 8
This is what I am reading

Answer 8

So you substituted it into
x+2-x=8
Which simplifies into
2=8
I was taught that this was neither a case of infinite solutions nor a case of no solutions. I would say that this is a Contradiction.

Answer 9

Not sure what @ofarrows would say

ok ty have time for another one
