First things first, write out your equation without the substitution.
2x+ 2y= 10
Now, put in the substitution.
2x+ 2• 2= 10
Combine like terms.
2x+ 4= 10
Now that your equation it simplified, you need to reverse the problem and put everything on the other side.
2x+ 4= 10
- 4 - 4
2x = 6
2x=6
— —
2 2
X= 3
So the final answer is x=3
Answer:
x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use elimination.
First, we need to multiply so that at least one variable can cancel out.
We can multiply the top equation by 2.
So we get
4x + 6y = 20
Then, we can use elimination.
The x's cancel out.
So we get 5y = 24
Or y = 24/5
Then, we can plug in this y value back into the first equation to find x.
2x + 3(24/5) = 10
2x + 72/5 = 50/5
2x = -22/5
x = -11/5
So x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
