Hey there!

Solve for x :

Answer:

x = 6 ✅

Explanation:

3x - 2 = 16

>> Add 2 to both sides :

3x - 2 + 2 = 16 + 2

3x = 18

>> Divide each side by 3 :

3x / 3 = 18 / 3

x = 6

▪️Let's verify :

3(6) - 2 ⇔18 - 2 ⇔ 16

Therefore, your answer is x = 6

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

$y= 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations:

$x-y=-11$

$y+7=-2x$

In order to find the y coordinate of the solution we must first find the solution to this system of equations. We first start by solving one of the given equations and then substitute the answer of that into the second equation and further solve to get the final answers.

$x=y=-11$
