Question

Given the system of equations, what is the solution?

2x+3y= 2
3x - 4y= 20
a. (4,-2)
b.(52,-34)
c.(-2,-2)

Answer 1

The solution is A. (4, -2)

Explanation:

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Answer 2

the answer is a. (4,-2)
if you plug in the numbers to the variables, plug in 4 to x and -2 to y, you would be doing 2*4+3*-2 which equals 2 :)
