Question

What is the value of y in the solution to the system of equations?

Answer 1

To solve for y you have to simplify both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable which equals to...

y = -4x/3 + 4

Next, you have to move all terms that don't contain y to the right side and solve.

y = 10 + 2x/3

____

Now we solve the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Point Form: (-3,8)

Equation Form: x = -3, y = 8

____

Leaving it to be the only choice which is 'D.) 8', I hope this helps, as always. I wish you the best of luck and I hope you have a nice day..
