Question

What is the solution of this system of Linear equations? y=3×-2 and y-2=×​

Answer 1

(2, 4)

Explanation:

Given the system of equations

y=3×-2.... 1

y-2=×​ ... 2

Substitute 2 into 1

y = 3(y-2) - 2

y = 3y - 6 - 2

y - 3y =-6-2

-2y = -8

y = -8/-2

y = 4

Recall that

x = y - 2

x = 4-2

x = 2

Hence the solution (x, y) is (2,4)
