y=4x+5
2x+y=17
Use substitution to solve the system of equations.

Answer:
(2,13)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Substitute [tex]y[/tex] for [tex]4x+5[/tex] in the second equation, [tex]2x+y=17[/tex]
Step 2:
With the new equation, [tex]6x+5=17[/tex], we can subtract 5 from both sides
Step 3:
[tex]6x=12[/tex]
Divide both sides by 6
[tex]x=2[/tex]
Step 4:
Plug in 2 for x
[tex]y=4(2)+5[/tex]
[tex]y=8+5\\y=13[/tex]
Step 5:
Check our work
[tex]2(2)+13=17\\4+13=17\\17=17[/tex]
y = 4x + 5
2x + y = 17
2x + 4x + 5 = 17
6x + 5 = 17
6x + 5 = 17
-5 | -5
x = 2
Proof that x equals 2:
6x + 5 = 17
-5 | -5
6x | 12
6 | 6
x = 2
Now to figure out what y equals.
y = 4x + 5
6x + 5 = 17
-6 | -6
x + 5 | 11
5 | 5 11/5 = 2.2
y = 2.2
2.2 rounded equals 2.
x = 2, y = 2
So each box should have a 2.
The answer is (2,2).
Let me know if this is the correct answer. :)
