Question

The value of x in this system of equations is 1.

Answer 1

Answer:

In my opinion the answer is y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two unknowns from the equation therefore, two equations are needed. These equations are:

3x + y = 9  

y = –4x +10  

To solve for y, we first substitute the second equation to the first one.

3x + –4x +10= 9  

x = 1

We substitute the value of x to either of the equations and solve for y.

y = –4(1) +10  

y = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x + y = 9$

$y = -4x + 10$

Substitute the value of y in the first equation:

$3x + (-4x + 10) = 9$

Apply the subtraction property of equality:

$-x + 10 = 9$

$-x=-1$

x=1

Substitute 1 for x in the given y equation

$y = -4x + 10$

$y = -4(1)+ 10$

y=6
