Question

using these two equations y=10 and y=3/2x+1 how do i pair them into a system which can be solved using elimination or substitution?

Answer 1

\[
y=10\\
y=\frac{3}{2}x+1\\
10=\frac{3}{2}x+1
\]

Answer 2

lol y=10 is an equation .... @thomas5267

Answer 3

Yes! So?

Answer 4

then how am i supposed to solve it by using substitution or elimination now? @thomas5267

Answer 5

lol

Answer 6

You have substituted \(y=10\) into \(y=\dfrac{3}{2}x+1\) to get \(10=\dfrac{3}{2}x+1\). So just solve \(10=\dfrac{3}{2}x+1\) then put the x back into \(y=\dfrac{3}{2}x+1\).

Answer 7

so i plug in 10=3/2x+1 into y???

Answer 8

Solve \(10=\dfrac{3}{2}x+1\) first. It is a linear equation with one variable.
