Question

Solve the following linear system of equations using substitution. Y=3x-5 Y=2x-6

Answer 1

3x-5=2x-6
Move 2x to the same side as 3x.
3x-2x = x
X-5=-6
add 5 to the -6.
X = 5-6
X=-1

Answer 2

Y=3x-5
y=2x-6

Move the X's to the other side on both equations to make equations easier to solve.

-3x+y=-5
-2x+y=-6

Subtract equations.

-x=1
x=-1

y=3x-5

y=3(-1) -5

y=-3-5
y=-8
