Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x + 6 = 3x - 2$

then subtract the 6 from both sides of the equation

$2x = 3x - 8$

then subtract the 3x from both sides of the equation

$- 1x = - 8$

then divide each side by -1

$x = 8$

Solve the system of equations. 7x+10y=36 y=2x+9 x = ______ y = ______

wel

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the y in the 1st equation with the 2nd equation.

7x + 10(2x + 9) = 36

7x + 20x + 90 = 36

27x + 90 = 36

3x + 10 = 4

3x = -6

x = -2

So now we can find y.

y = 2x + 9 = 2(-2) + 9 = (-4) + 9 = 5.

So x = -2, y = 5.
