solve for the y value. 3x+2y=19 6x+7y=44
(9x+9y=63)1/9 x+y=7 y=-x+7
ok
@aaliyahfairgood is that your final answer?
the final answer iis y=2 i just dont know how to get it
Your right y does equal 2. Let me explain
solve for the x too? kk
ok
then plug x and y into both of the equations to check your answer
y=2 because you have the equations of 3x+2y=19 6x+7y=44 you should easily see here that the easiest form of answering this is by elimination. make the first equation have a -6 in there. you do that by multiplying that equation by -2. That makes it -6x-4y=-38 So now, your two equations are -6x-4y=-38 6x+7y=44 Add them. 3y=6 y=2
yep
TO get x, you know that y=2. Therefore, 3x+2(2)=19 That is 3x+4=19 simplify to 3x=15 x=5
@aaliyahfairgood 's way is actually easier if you can see what she did.
sorry but I am not good at explaining myself of what I did in math particularly because I think faster than I can actually verify my own answer and understand myself
