Y = 3x + 15<br> 3x + 3y = 9
Zina [86]

Answer:

\Large\boxed{x=-3}\Large\boxed{y=6}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given the system of equations</u>

1)~y=3x+15

2)~3x+3y=9

<u>Divide 3 on both sides of the 2) equation</u>

3x+3y=9

3x\div3+3y\div3=9\div3

x+y=3

<u>Current system</u>

1)~y=3x+15

2)~x+y=3

<u>Substitute 1) equation into the 2) equation</u>

x+(3x+15)=3

<u>Combine like terms</u>

x+3x+15=3

4x+15=3

<u>Subtract 15 on both sides</u>

4x+15-15=3-15

4x=-12

<u>Divide 4 on both sides</u>

4x\div4=-12\div4

\Large\boxed{x=-3}

<u>Substitute the x value into one of the equations to find the y value</u>

y=3x+15

y=3(-3)+15

y=-9+15

\Large\boxed{y=6}

Hope this helps!! :)

Sum of two number is 120. If the larger number is four times the smaller number, wbat are the two numbers
tankabanditka [31]

x+y=120_______1

x=4*y_________2

x=4y

substitute 4y for x in equation 1

`4y+y=120

5y=120

eliminate the coefficient of y

y=120/5

y=24

now,input 24 for y in equation 2

`x=4y

x=4*24

x=96

thus, the numbers are

96 and 24
