Question

How do u solve y=296-10x and y=200+6x

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = 6$ and $y = 236$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = 296 - 10x$

$y = 200 + 6x$

By equating both equations, we get:

$296 - 10x = 200+6x$

$16x = 96$  [Separate variables and constants]

$x = 6$

By substituting $x = 6$ to the above equation, we get:

$y = 296 - 10(6)$

$y = 296 - 60$

$y = 236$

Hence, $x = 6$ and $y = 236$
