The solution is (3 , 4) ⇒ 2nd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equations can be solved by:
- Elimination method
- Substitution method
The system of equations is:
y = 3 x - 5 ⇒ (1)
y = x + 3 ⇒ (2)
By using the substitution method substitute y in equation (2) by equation (1)
3 x - 5 = x + 3
Subtract x from both sides
x = 8
Divide both sides by
x = 3
substitute x by 3 in equation (1)
y = 3(3) - 5
y = 9 - 5
y = 4
The solution is (3 , 4)
