Algebra.Com's Answer #118667 by scott8148(6628) You can put this solution on YOUR website! from 1st eqn __ x=-4-6y\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "substituting into 2nd eqn __ 3(-4-6y)-4y=10 __ -12-18y-4y=10 __ -22y=22 __ y=-1\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "substituting __ x=-4-6(-1) __ x=2 \n" ); document.write( " |
