Question 260273: Solve each system:
{y = 2x + 8
{y = 3x - 1


{2x - y = 2
{2x - 2y = 4

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the the first two both =y set them equal to each other and solve for x
2x+8=3x-1
9=x
y=27-1
y=26
You are supposed to have only one problem per submission and no similar problems
the second one becomes similar by solving both equations for 2x and setting them equal
