Solve by substitution.
x+y=3
x=2y | (2y)+y=3 3y=3 y=1 x=2(1) x=2 (2,1) |
Solve by substitution.
x+y=6
y=-3x | x+(-3x)=6 x-3x=6 -2x=6 x=-3 y=-3(-3) y=9 (-3,9) |
Solve by substitution.
y=2x+9
y=7x+10 | 7x+10=2x+9 5x=-1 x=-1/5 y=2(-1/5)+9 y=-2/5+9 y=-2/5+45/5 y=43/5 (-1/5,43/5) |
Solve by substitution.
x+2y=6
2x+3y=8 | x+2y=6 x=6-2y 2(6-2y)+3y=8 12-4y+3y=8 12-y=8 -y=-4 y=4
