Question

use the method of substitution to solve the system of linear equations.

2x+4=2/3

y=3x-1

The solution is ?

Answer 1

solve the top equation for x. plug the answer for x into the bottom equation and post your answer for y. I'll check it.

Answer 2

Im not sure how to do it

Answer 3

2x+4 = 2/3
\[2x = \frac{ 2 }{3}-4\]
\[2x = -3\frac{ 1 }{3 }\]
\[2x = \frac{ 10 }{3}\]
\[x = \frac{ 10 }{ 6 }\]
\[x = \frac{ 5 }{ 3 }\]

now you can solve the lower part
