Solve using the substitution method -7x+y =42 and 5x+13y =66

1 answer:

5 0

-7x+y=42
y=42+7x

5x+13y=66
Substitute for y (meaning put 42+7x into the equation above instead of y because they are equal - see second line of my answer above)

5x+13[42+7x] = 66
5x +546 = 66
5x=66-546
5x=-480
x=-480/5
x=-96
