What is the solution of the system ? 2x+3y=4 x-y=-3

Change the equation, x - y = -3, to isolate x or y and plug that new equation into the equation 2x + 3y = 4

I changed it to: x = y - 3
so 
2(y - 3) + 3y = 4
2y - 6 + 3y = 4
5y - 6 = 4
5y = 4 + 6
5y = 10
y = 10/5
y = 2

then you plug that 2 into the equation x = y - 3 to get the value of x

x = (2) - 3
x = -1

you can check this by plugging the x and y values into the equation 2x + 3y = 4

2(-1) + 3(2) = 4
-2 + 6 = 4
4 = 4

hope this helps :)

1/2(2g-3)=-4(g+1) show work
brilliants [131]
1g-1.5=-4g-4 (distribute 1/2 and -4 inside their respective parenthesis)
1g=-4g-2.5 (add 1.5 to -4)
5g=-2.5 (add 4g to 1g)
g=-0.5 (divide both sides by 5)

Solve the equation. Check your solution.
VladimirAG [237]
-5x/6  + 1=7/18
lowest common multiple=18
-15x+18=7
-15x=7-18
-15x=-11
x=-11/-15=11/15

The solution set is [11/15]

we check it out.
-5(11/15) /6    +  1 =7/18
(-55/15) / 6 +1=7/18
-55/90  +  1=7/18
(-55+90) /90=7/18
35/90=7/18
7/18=7/18
