Question

Solve the system. x=5y y=22-2x What is the solution?

Answer 1

Answer:

{x,y} = {10,2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

[2]    y = -2x + 22

Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

[1]    x - 5•(-2x+22) = 0

  [1]    11x = 110

Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

  [1]    11x = 110

  [1]    x = 10

By now we know this much :

   x = 10

   y = -2x+22

Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = -2(10)+22 = 2

Answer 2

The solution is (10,2) or x=10, y=2. Hope this helps :)
