Question

To solve this system of equations, Ayana isolated y in the first equation and then substituted for y in the second equation. What was the result? 2y=6x x^2+y=4 please solve

Answer 1

B.) x² + 3x = 4

Explanation:

To find the answer, you need to (1) isolate "y" in the first equation and then (2) plug the rearranged first equation into the second equation.

(Step 1)

2y = 6x <----- Original first equation

y = 3x <----- Divide both sides by 2

(Step 2)

x² + y = 4 <----- Original second equation

x² + (3x) = 4 <----- Plug 3x in for "y"
