Question

What is the solution of the system?

Answer 1

(-13,-4)

Explanation:

4x-8y=-20

9x+113=y

Substitute in y for 9x+113

4x-8y=-20

Substitute

4x-8(9x+113)=-20

Simplify

4x-72x-904=-20

Simplify

-68x-904=-20

Additive Prop. of Equality

-68x-904+904=-20+904

Simplify

-68x=884

Isolate the variable(x)

-68x=884

-68x -68x

Simplify

x=-13

Solve for y

9x+113=y

9(-13)+113=y

-117+113=y

-4=y

Check

4x-8y=-20

4(-13)-8(-4)=-20

-52+32=-20

-20=-20

9x+113=y

9(-13)+113=-4

-117+113=-4

-4=-4
