8
46
is equivalent to 4
23
because 4 x 2 = 8 and 23 x 2 = 46
12
69
is equivalent to 4
23
because 4 x 3 = 12 and 23 x 3 = 69
16
92
is equivalent to 4
23
because 4 x 4 = 16 and 23 x 4 = 92
OK first convert one of the equations into Y=MX+b form
Y-2x = 3
Add 2X
Y = 2x +3
Now substitute this equation in the other one.
So it would be
3X - 2Y = 5
3X-2(2x+3) = 5
Now solve for y
3X - 4X - 6 = 5
-1X - 6 = 5
Add 6
-1X = 11
X = -11
Now substitute this into one of the equations
Y - 2X = 3
Y -2(-11) = 3
Y +22 = 3
y = 3-22
y = -19
