2x+y=3
Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
A) x-y=12
B) 2x+y=3
.
substitution:
A) x-y+y=12+y
x=12+y
2(12+y)+y=3 substitute 12+y for x.
24+2y+y=3
3y+24-24=3-24
3y=-21
y=-7
A) x-y=12
x+7=12
x+7-7=12-7
x=5
.
addition:
B) 2x+y=3
A) x-y=12
-----------add
==>3x=15
x=5
A) x-y=12
5-y=12
5-5-y=12-5
-y=7
-y*-1=7*-1
y=-7
