Question

A system of equations is shown below:

n = 3m + 5
n − 2m = 3

What is the solution, in the form (m, n), to the system of equations?

(2, 11)
(1, 8)
(−2, −1)
(−3, −4)

Answer 1

n = 3m+5 so plug '3m+5' for n in the second formula like
(3m-5) -2m = 3

Answer 2

so would it be c? :E

Answer 3

one sec

Answer 4

ok

Answer 5

how did u get C? i got different answer O-o

Answer 6

well i did it wrong, i think i used elimination (i suck at math)
but what did you get, could you explain it?(:

Answer 7

yes i will :D
(3m-5)-2m = 3
did u understand what i did ^^ ?

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

so
(3m-5)-2m= 3
3m-2m -5 = 3
1m -5 + 5 = 3+5
m= 8

Answer 10

wait, so it would be B (1,8)

Answer 11

hold on i think i did something wrong o-o

Answer 12

ok hahah

Answer 13

wait it was +5 NOT -5 my bad :/

Answer 14

oh its okay

Answer 15

ok here
(3m + 5) -2m = 3
3m -2m +5 = 3
1m +5-5= 2-5
m= -2

Answer 16

okay so the answer is c?

Answer 17

yes no need to solve for n ;) :P

Answer 18

thanks! C it is!

Answer 19

you're welcome :)
