Question

Solve the system of linear equations using the

substitution method.
y=-2x + 3
6x + 3y = -3

Answer 1

no solution

Explanation:

y = -2x + 3

6x + 3y = -3

the substitution method means you plug one equation into the next, because the first equation gives us a solution for y we can go ahead and plug that into y of the second equation

6x + 3(-2x + 3) = -3

6x - 6x + 9 = -3

9 = -3

which is false meaning that there are no solutions and the lines don't touch at any point
