Question

Y= x + 6y= -x+2solve each system of equations by substitution

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -2
y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have an equation set equal to y, we can plug it in for either value of y.

I will be using y= x+6 in this case.

Plug in x+6 for the other equation, so instead of y=-x+2 it will now be that x+6 = -x+2

Now add x to both sides, and that will remove the x on the left side leaving us with 2x+6 = 2

Now, subtract 6 from both sides to get 2x isolated, and you will get 2x= -4

Divide both sides by 2 to get x= -2

Not plug x= -2 in back for the top (or bottom) equation and get that y=4

Hope this helps and isn't too complicated!
