Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.

Karolina [17]3 years ago

Substitution is where we first Isolate one of the unknowns, express it in terms of the other unknown, and replace the isolated unknown with the other unknown in another equation. So that each time we only need to deal with one unknown. I think you'll get a better idea here:

First name these 2 equations with 1 and 2.
4x + 5y = 7 (1)
y = 3x + 9 (2)

Since y is already isolated in (2), so we can skip the isolation step and continue to substitute.

Substitute (2) into (1).
4x + 5(3x+9) = 7

Expand.
4x + 15x + 45 = 7

Group.
19x + 45 = 7

Shift +45 to the other side and turn it into -45.

19x = 7 - 45
19x = -38

Shift x19 to the other side, turn it into /19.
X = - 38/19
X = - 2

Now we solved x already, we can just substitute x= - 2 back to equation (2).

y = 3(-2) + 9
y = - 6 + 9
y = 3

So, the answers are
x = - 2
y = 3

goldfiish [28.3K]

Given data:

The first set of equations are x+y=4, and x=6.

The second set of equations are 3x-y=12 and y=-6.

The point of intersection of first set of te equations is,

6+y=4

y=-2

The first point is (6, -2).

The point of intersection of second set of te equations is,

3x-(-6)=12

3x+6=12

3x=6

x=2

The second point is (2, -6).

The equation of the line passing through (6, -2) and (2, -6) is,

\begin{gathered} y-(-2)=\frac{-6-(-2)}{2-6}(x-6) \\ y+2=\frac{-6+2}{-4}(x-6) \\ y+2=x-6 \\ y=x-8 \end{gathered}

Thus, the required equation of the line is y=x-8.
