Question

Solve the system of equations

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-8, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

if 1/2x+6y=12 then 1/2x+y=2 and x+y=1 and y=1-x..if y=1-x then 1-x=x=15 and 2x=16 so x=8 if x=8 then 1/2(8) +6y=12 or 4=6y=12.. then 2y=4 and y=2

Answer 2

Answer:

x=-12,y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+6y=12

y=x+15

since y=x+15

substitute y in first equation, we have

1/2x+6(x+15)=12

open the bracket

1/2x+6x+90=12

1/2x+6x=12-90

x/2+6x= -78

13x/2=-78

13x=2×-78

x=-12

Now x=-12, put x=-12 in the second equation, we have

y=x+15

y=-12+15

y=3
