Question

Solve the system using substitution: y = -6x + 7 3x – 2y = 16 helppp

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-6 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

 

 [2]    y = -x - 7

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    3x - 2•(-x -7) = -16

  [1]    5x = -30

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x  

  [1]    5x = - 30  

  [1]    x = - 6  

// By now we know this much :

   x = -6

   y = -x-7

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y  

   y = -(-6)-7 = -1  

Solution :

{x,y} = {-6,-1}
