In the system of x+2y=9 and x-y=6. What would be substituted for x in the second equation?
A.9-x
B.1/2x+9
C.9-2y
D.y-9/2
I got D. Am I right?

guess what i'm gonna say!!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got y=-1/2x+9/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can you explain that please.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry about that i was trying to find out what why was equal to.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so all you have to do is change the equation x+2y=9 to what x=. subtract 2y to the other side
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x+2y=9
-2y -2y
x = 9 - 2y
------------
x - y = 6
(9-2y) - y = 6

you get -2y+9 which is the same as 9-2y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ooh..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
therefore the answer is C

Step 4) ANSWER!!!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Hahaha
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats stupid
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you'll thank me by the time you get to Calculus 3! XD
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok ok , so can you explain this one too.
Solve this system
-5x+y=-3
3x-8y=24
(0,-3)
(3,0)
(0,3)
(-3,0)
