Question

What is the value of y in the solution set of the system of linear equations shown

Answer 1

The answer will be 10 because you plug in y=-×+12 in the equation 4x-2y=36. After you solve and do distributive property your new equation should be 4x+2x-24=36, then you add the like terms of 4x and 2x which will equal to 6x and your new equation should be 6x-24=36. Add 24 from both sides and your equation should be 6x=60, then you divide 60 by 6 and your final answer will be x=10 or 10
