Question

4x+y=6
y=11x
tell whether you would use substitution or elimination method

Answer 1

y is completely isolated in equation 2, so I'd use the substitution method

Answer 2

4x+y=6

4x+11x=6 ... substitute in 11x for y (since y = 11x)

now solve for x and tell me what you get

Answer 3

x=2/5? not sure horrible at math

Answer 4

good, x = 2/5 is correct

Answer 5

YES!

Answer 6

now that you know that x = 2/5, you can replace x with 2/5 in either equation that has x,y

the second one is easier

Answer 7

y = 11x

y = 11(2/5)

y = (11/1)*(2/5)

y = (11*2)/(1*5)

y = 22/5

Answer 8

thank you!

Answer 9

im new to open study so is there a way i can follow you or something so that you could tutor me again if thats ok?

Answer 10

you can fan me if you want

also, you can private message any user

some users require that you have to be a fan first, but I don't have that restriction so you can private message me if you're a fan or not

Answer 14

and finally, you can tag users by sticking an @ symbol before their user name to get their attention to come to the post

example: @PR0JECTxIC0N
