Question

What is the solution to the system of equations below?
y=-3x+8 and x = -6

Answer 1

( - 6 , 26 )

Explanation:

You can solve this in a number of ways, you can graph it, you can substitute the value of x into the first equation, or you can do it the elimination method.

So lets just do the substitution method because i can't do the others on here, i can't write :/.

so substitute x = -6 into the equation y = -3x + 8

y = -3(-6) + 8

y = 18 + 8

y = 26

now you know what (X) equals to and what (Y) equals to so its,

(-6,26)
