Y – 5 = x 4x – y = 4 elimination

Answer:

(3,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 5 = x

4x - y = 4

Since y-5 = x, substitute y-5 in place of x in the second equation:

4x- y = 4

4(y-5) - y = 4

4y - 4*5 - y = 4

3y - 20 = 4

3y = 24

y =8

Solve for x:

y - 5 = x

8-5 = x

3 = x

Check:

4x - y = 4

4(3) - 8 = 4

12 - 8 = 4

4 = 4

Check

y - 5 = x

8 - 5 = 3

3 = 3

Check!

y - 5 = x

4x - y = 4

Arrange:

y - 5 = x

-x + y = 5

-x + y = 5

4x - y = 4

Add together:

-x + y = 5

4x - y = 4

3x      = 9

3x = 9

Solve for x:

x = 9 ÷ 3

x = 3

Substitute and solve y:

y - 5 = x

y  - 5 = 3

y = 3 + 5

y = 8

x = 3

y = 8

What is the solution to the system of equations? x=4y 6 x-3y=4
ahrayia [7]
If you graph the two equations then you will find that they intersect at (-2,-2).

You then have to check your answer.

x=4y+6
(-2)=4(-2)+6
-2=-8+6
-2=-2

x-3y=4
(-2)-3(-2)=4
-2+6=4
4=4
