Question

What is the solution (x, y) to this system of linear equations? 2x – 3y = –6 x + 2y = 11

Answer 1

2x +6x = 3y + 2y = 11
8x = 5y= 11

8x= 11
X= 11/8 or 1.375

5y= 11
Y= 11/5 or 2.2


Maybe ^ haven’t done these in a while.

Answer 2

x = 3, y = 4

Explanation:

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