Solve the following linear system using the substitution method. Be sure to put your x and y values in the correct spots in the provided coordinate.
24=-3x+y
5y=15

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is  (7,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this systems of equations, set both equations equal to y (common variable in both equations).

[tex]24-3x=y\\3=y[/tex]

by looking at both of these, we already know that y is equal to 3.

substitute y for 3 to solve for x.

[tex]24-3x= 3[/tex]

subtract 24 from both sides.

[tex]-3x= -21[/tex]

divide both sides by -3.

[tex]x=7[/tex]

the ordered pair will be written as (7,3)

you can check your answer by substituting 7 and 3 for x and y.

[tex]24= 3(7)+3\\24=21+3\\24=24[/tex]

hope this helps ;)
