Question

Which method would be the simplest way to solve the system?. y=1/2x. 2x+3y=28. A. Graphing . B. Substitution. C. Elimination . D. Distributive

Answer 1

Substitution is your answer

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is the option B

the simplest way to solve the system is Substitution

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=\frac{1}{2}x$ ----> equation A

$2x+3y=28$ -----> equation B

Substitute equation A in equation B

$2x+3(\frac{1}{2})x=28$

Solve for x

$3.5x=28$

$x=8$

Substitute the value of x in the equation A and solve for y

$y=\frac{1}{2}(8)=4$

The solution of the system of equations is the point $(8,4)$

therefore

the simplest way to solve the system is Substitution
