Question

Solve the system of linear equations below
x + y = 4
2x + 3y = 0

Answer 1

First solve for \(x\) in terms of one of the other variables. The first one is easier to do this.
\[x = 4 - y\]
Then you can plug that into the second: \[2(4 - y) + 3y = 0\]
After you've found y, you can substitute that back in and find x.

Answer 2

multiply the 1st equation by 2

then subtract the 2nd equation, this will eliminate x and allow you to solve for y

2x + 2y = 8
- 2x + 3y = 0

Answer 3

so then you what would be the answer?o:

Answer 4

well what do you get when you do the subtraction...

when you have a value for y, substitute it into either equation to find x
