Y= 3x-1 2x+6=y substitution method
2 answers:
Answer: (7, 20)
Concept:
There are three general ways to solve systems of equations:
- Elimination
- Substitution
- Graphing
Since the question has specific requirements, we are going to use <u>substitution </u>to solve the equations.
Solve:
<u>Given equations</u>
y = 3x - 1
2x + 6 = y
<u>Substitute the y value since both equations has isolated [y]</u>
2x + 6 = 3x - 1
<u>Add 1 on both sides</u>
2x + 6 + 1 = 3x - 1 + 1
2x + 7 = 3x
<u>Subtract 2x on both sides</u>
2x + 7 - 2x = 3x - 2x
<u>Find the value of y</u>
y = 3x - 1
y = 3(7) - 1
y = 21 - 1
Hope this helps!! :)

<h3>What is an Equilateral Triangle?</h3>A triangle that has all its three sides equal in length, is referred to as an equilateral triangle.
1. Given the each side measures 2 units, and h is the height, applying the Pythagorean theorem, we would have:
h = √(2² - 1²)
h = √(4 - 1)
h = √3
2. Area of the equilateral triangle = 1/2bh = 1/2(2)(√3)
Area of the equilateral triangle = √3 units²
3. If x is the side length of the equilateral triangle, we would have:
height (h) = √[x² - (x/2)²] = √[x² - x²/4] = √(3x²/4) = √3/2x
Area = 1/2bh = 1/2(x)(√3/2x) = √3/4 x²
