Question 221186: How Do I solve This?
Use the substitution method to solve the linear system given. Express
the answer as an ordered pair of the form (x,y)
x + y = 5
2x + y = 6
Solve: We'll use substitution. After moving 1*y to the right, we get: , or . Substitute that
into another equation: and simplify: So, we know that y=4. Since , x=1.
Answer: .
ANSWER: The solution is (1,4) as an ordered as a pair where x=1 and y=4.
I hope the above steps and explanation were helpful.
