Question

What is the solution to the system of equations?
@ganeshie8

My guess was 14,2 but it isn't right.

Answer 1

lets solve it by substitution

Answer 2

Ok

Answer 3

because the substitution for x is readily available from first equation

Answer 4

Ok

Answer 5

x = `4y+6`

`x` - 3y = 4

Answer 6

Ok, what is next?

Answer 7

plug that value of x in second equation, you get :

`4y + 6` - 3y = 4

yes ?

Answer 8

Got it

Answer 9

good, combine like terms and do other usual stuff and solve y

Answer 10

1y + 6 = 4...what next

Answer 11

you want y all by itself

Answer 12

so subtract 6 from 4?

Answer 13

subtract 6 from both sides

Answer 14

1y = -2?

Answer 15

but nobody writes 1y
we know y means 1y

Answer 16

so y = -2

Answer 17

Ok, so
y = -2

Answer 18

plug that y value in any of the given equations and solve x

Answer 19

Is the answer
------
-2, -2 ??

Answer 20

looks good !
