Question

Solve using substitution x = 3y + 1 2x + 4y = 12​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3y + 1 (Multiply everything by -2)

2x + 4y = 12​ (Transfer 4y to the right of the = sign)

2x = -4y + 12

-2x = -6y - 2

0 = -10y + 10

-10 = -10y

y = 1

x = 3y + 1

x = 3(1) + 1

x = 3 + 1

x = 4
