Question

PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS ANSWER

Answer 1

a) x = -2/3 y = -26/3 or -8 2/3

b) x = 12 y = 5

Explanation:

a) since both equations begin with 'y =' you can set them equal to each other

4x - 6 = x - 8

3x = -2

x = -2/3

sub x value to find y:

y = 4(-2/3) - 6

= -8/3 + (-18/3)

= -26/3
