Question

Solve this system of equations.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -3 and y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be more direct to apply elimination in this problem, rather than substitution:

  2x + 6y = -6       ⇒      2x + 6y = -6       ⇒      10x = - 30

+ 2(4x - 3y = -12)        +  8x - 6y = -24

Now let us solve for x through simply algebra:

10x = -30,

  x = -3

Substitute this value of x into the first equation to get the value of y:

2( -3 ) + 6y = -6,

-6 + 6y = -6,

  6y = 0,

    y = 0
