Solve the system by substitution. y = -4x 23 - 5y = 44

spin [16.1K]

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Given the system of equations.

$\begin{cases} y = - 4x \\ 23 - 5y = 44 \end{cases}$

Substitute y = -4x in the second equation.

$23 - 5( - 4x) = 44 \\ 23 + 20x = 44 \\ 20x = 44 - 23 \\ 20x = 21 \\ x = \frac{21}{20}$

Substitute the value of x in any given equations. I will substitute the value of x in the first equation.

$y = - 4x \Longrightarrow y = - 4( \frac{21}{20} ) \\ y = \cancel{ - 4}( \frac{21}{ \cancel{20}} ) \Longrightarrow y = - \frac{21}{5} \\ y = - \frac{21}{5}$

Answer Check by substituting both values in two equations.

First Equation

$y = - 4x \Longrightarrow - \frac{21}{5} = - 4( \frac{21}{20} ) \\ - \frac{21}{5} = \cancel{ - 4}( \frac{21}{ \cancel{20}} ) \\ - \frac{21}{5} = - \frac{21}{5} \: \: \: \checkmark$
