Question

What is the solution to the system of equations below? y=2/5x-3 and x=-10

Answer 1

the solution (x,y) for the system of equation is (-10, -7)

Explanation:

y=2/5x-3 and x=-10

`y=(2)/(5) x-3`

Given x=-10

Replace x with -10 in our equation and find out y

`y=(2)/(5) x-3`

`y=(2)/(5)(-10)-3`

`y=-4-3=-7`

When x=-10 the value of y is -7

So the solution (x,y) for the system of equation is (-10, -7)

Answer 2

The solution is (-10,-7)

Explanation:

y=2/5x-3 and x=-10

We know x = -10

Substitute the second equation into the first equation to find y

y = 2/5 (-10) -3

y = -4 -3

y = -7

The solution is (-10,-7)
