Question

Help please

x - y = 6
x = y + 2

Answer 1

solve simultaneously..

Answer 2

first rearrange the second so both the x and y are on one side

Answer 3

(x=4, y=2}

Answer 4

I TRIED THAT.

Answer 5

X+y=2

Answer 6

rearranging the second equation entails taking the y to the left side...
since it is positive..when we take to the other side it will become opposite to positive which is negative...
so what do you think it is..

Answer 7

or x-y=2

Answer 8

yes x-y=2

Answer 9

so now we have
x-y=6
x-y=2

can you solve this simultaneously?

Answer 10

0,6

Answer 11

nope.

Answer 12

6,0

Answer 13

i take it you dont know how to solve simultaneuosly?

Answer 14

No

Answer 15

ok lets take a different approach

Answer 16

in the second equation what does x equal to?

Answer 17

2

Answer 18

no in the second equation x equals y+2...
you must include everything after the equal sign...even if it be a letter
do you get that?

Answer 19

Yes

Answer 20

now substitute x=y+2 into the first equation

Answer 21

are you getting this?

Answer 22

So IDK

Answer 23

in place of the x in the first equation put y+2

Answer 24

Y+2=Y+2

Answer 25

no no no..
we have x-y=6.....first equation
x=y+2.....second equation
put y+2 in place of the x inthe first equation

Answer 26

Y+2=x
