Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The error carolyn has made is that she hasn't subtracted properly.

2x + 3y - (2x +6y) = 2x - 2x + 3y - 6y = -3y.

Carolyn probably didn't use parentheses...

To do the thing in substitution, we single out x or y in any equation. In this case, i'm gonna single out the x in the 2nd eqn. In other words, i'll make x the subject of the 2nd eqn.

2x + 6y = 10

2x         = 10 - 6y

x           = 5 - 3y

Now we simply plug in 5 - 3y wherever x apperas in the 1st equation.

2 (5-3y) + 3y = 8

10 - 6y + 3y   = 8

10 - 3y           = 8

-3y                 =  -2

y                    = 2/3

Then x = 5 - 3*2/3 = 3

x=3

y=2/3

Hope it helps:)
