Use substitution to solve the system of equations. Enter your answer as an ordered pair; example: (4, -5)
y = 3x + 5
x = -3y - 5

Take y from the first equation substitute it in the second equation and solve for x. Then put x value in one of the equations and find y.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=-3(-5)+5
x=-15+5
x=-10
I think that's half of the steps right there.
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
ooo i see
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
so then you would put -10 into the y solution
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yep I think so

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
so y=3(-10)+5
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
y=-25
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
actually I just realized. That was an example, it is not actually used in the problem
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
the ordered pair (4,5) is not used so what would you do now??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think you are supposed to use x which is 4 in the problem to? I can't remember but. Yeah just plug -10 in and I think you are good!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
Then you find x and y
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
I believe you would do something like x= -3(3x+5)-5
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
nope....
Enter your answer as an ordered pair; example: (4, -5)
the ordered pair is only an example to how to present ur answer...
substitution is
y = 3x + 5
x = -3y - 5
x = -3(3x + 5) -5
then solve it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ah ok sorry about that.
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
Yes I thought it was that :p

so x=-9x-20?
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
yep!
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
nway... u got the correct idea... that's the important part...
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
so then how would you put it into an ordered pair solution o.o
OpenStudy (ranga):
You solve for x first. Then find y. Put it as (x, y) and that is how you put it as an ordered pair.
What are you getting for x?

ordered pair ---- (x value , y value )
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
Yes but how do you just seclude it to one number if this is what you get for x x=-9x-20?
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
solve it for x
OpenStudy (ranga):
Oh, you have to solve for x
x = -9x - 20
Add 9x to both sides. What do you get?
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
x + 9x = -20
10x = -20
x = ?

OK. Put x = -2 in any one of the equations and find y. What do you get for y?

Could You help me with some more. Because like this is all about system of equations and its not my best point of algebra

Alright Thank you >.< I just have issues in this part of algebra

Classify the system and determine the number of solutions. (Check all that apply.)
$x - 2y = -8$
$4x = 8y - 56$
inconsistent

no solution
infinitely many solutions

x=2y-14
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
is there any specific way to solve this ....like using substitution... or can we solve it by any method?
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
By any method I believe saying it doesn't say a specific type
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
x=2y-14 -----(1)
x - 2y = -8
x = 2y - 8 -----(2)
so....
no solutions...
(1) = (2)
2y -14 = 2y -8
y will cancel out.. u can't solve this one...
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
so no solution and inconsistent

Use substitution to solve the system of equations. Enter your answer as an ordered pair; example: (4, -5)
5x + 6y = -9
2x - 2 = -y
With this one can you just correct me if I get it wrong :p
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
y=-2x+2
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
correct
OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):
5x=6y+9

or do you put y in before you divide it by 5

I get a repeating number
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
5x + 6y = -9
5x + 6(-2x+2) = -9
5x - 12x + 12 = -9
-7x = -21
x = 3
u have miss the step here
5x + 6y = -9 ----- > 5x = 6y - 9 ; it should be 5x = -6y - 9
