Question

Solve the system using any method.
y = 3x + 2
y = 7x - 10

Answer 1

x=3

y=11

Explanation:

y = 3x + 2 equation 1

y = 7x - 10 equation 2

using equation 1 in equation 2 we have:

3x + 2 = 7x - 10

2=7x - 3x -10

2 = 4x -10

2+10 = 4x

12= 4x

12/4 = x

we have:

x= 3

using equation 1:

y = 3x + 2

y= 3(3)+2

y=9+2

y=11
