The solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = 11
<h3>What are linear equations?</h3>
Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change, slope or gradient
<h3>How to determine the solution to the system?</h3>
A system of linear equations is a collection of at least two linear equations.
In this case, the system of equations is given as
y equals x plus 8
y equals 3 x plus 2
Rewrite properly as
y = x + 8
y = 3x + 2
Substitute y = x + 8 in y = 3x + 2
x + 8 = 3x + 2
Evaluate the like terms
2x = 6
Divide by 2
x = 3
Substitute x = 3 in y = x + 8
y = 3 + 8
Evaluate
y = 11
Hence, the solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = 11
