Algebra.Com's Answer #100437 by MORUPHOSUOLALE(24)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! x - y = 3 \n" ); document.write( "3x - 2y = 3\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To solve this by substitution method. \n" ); document.write( "First, change the subject of the fomulae in either equation. \n" ); document.write( "This means... find the equation value of x or y (u can choose either) \n" ); document.write( " I will choose x- \n" ); document.write( "Therefore equation 1 becomes- \n" ); document.write( "x= 3+y\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So by substitution method ,plug in 3+y for x in equation 2.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore- \n" ); document.write( " 3x-2y=3 will become .... 3(3+y)-2y = 3 \n" ); document.write( " 9+3y-2y=3 \n" ); document.write( " 3y-2y= 3-9 (by collecting like terms. \n" ); document.write( " y = -6\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " To get our x value- \n" ); document.write( "We have to substitute the value of y which is -6 in equation 1 (preferably). \n" ); document.write( " x-y=3 \n" ); document.write( "Plug in (-6) as y in this equation. \n" ); document.write( " x-(-6) = 3 \n" ); document.write( " x+6 = 3 \n" ); document.write( " x= 3-6 \n" ); document.write( " x= -3 \n" ); document.write( " You can use this approach to solve any equation of this type. But when u are using substitution approach u have to be very mindful of your signs rule.Adhere to it! \n" ); document.write( "I hope this helps and Good luck!\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Moruph Osuolale \n" ); document.write( "mosuolal@uncc.edu \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
