Solving systems of equations using substitution p=q+2 4p+3q= -27

Ok, so you are given the value of P=q+2

The substitution method tells us that we must insert the value we know, into the second equation, 4P+3q= -27


Doing so will give us 4(q+2)+3q= -27

For right now, lets just focus on the first part, 4(q+2)

We can simplify this by distributing(multiplying) the 4 to whats inside the variables.

This will give us 4q+8

now lets add this back to the rest of the equation >>>  4q+8+3q = -27

We can further simplify by adding like terms >>> 7q+8 = -27

subtract the 8 from both sides >>> 7q = -35

now divide both sides by 7 >>> q = -35/7

Therefor q = -5

EDIT* 

now that we know q = -5 we can put q into the equation for P !

we know that p=q+2

so lets put q in now >>> p=(-5)+2

and simplify>>> p = -3

I hope this helps:)

PLEASE HELP LOTS OF POINTS!!!!!!!! TWO QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!
zubka84 [21]

Answer: Number one would be 3x+2y+-14 and x+y=-4, second one is x=-3, y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one is solved by inputting the x and y in each one and finding which one comes out true, the second on is solved by substitution. to find x you would subtract x in the first equation and make it y=4-x then input that equation in the y in the second equation.
