Answer:
(- 6, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
x = -2y - 6 → (1)
- 3x - 7y = 18 → (2)
substitute x = - 2y - 6 into (2)
- 3(- 2y - 6) - 7y = 18 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
6y + 18 - 7y = 18
- y + 18 = 18 ( subtract 18 from both sides )
- y = 0 , then
y = 0
substitute y = 0 into (1)
x = - 2(0) - 6 = 0 - 6 = - 6
solution is (- 6, 0 )
Answer:
(x, y) = (-6, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
A system of equations is easily solved using a graphing calculator. The attached shows the solution to be ...
(x, y) = (-6, 0)
__
The first equation gives a convenient expression for substituting for x in the second equation:
-3(-2y -6) -7y = 18
18 -y = 18 . . . . . . . . simplify
y = 0 . . . . . . . . add y-18
x = -2(0) -6 = -6
The solution by substitution is (x, y) = (-6, 0).
