Answer:
The system of equations has no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of substitution consists in solving one equation for a variable and replacing it in the other equation.
In this case one of the equations is already solved for one of the variables ([tex]y[/tex]):
[tex]y = -2x + 1[/tex]
So the next step is to plug this in the other equation wich is:
[tex]4x + 2y = -3[/tex]
So we will have
[tex]4x + 2(-2x + 1) = -3[/tex]
solving the parenthesis:
[tex]4x-4x -2= -3[/tex]
[tex]-2= -3[/tex]
wich is not a valid answer, so the system of equations has no solution.
