Question

Help please. Solve the system of equations using substitution. Show your work in the workspace provided below.

y=3x - 11
O=6x-2y-22

Answer 1

x=0 y=-11 (0,-11)

Explanation:

1. take what y equals (3x-11) and plug it in for y in the second equation

Should look like this: O= 6x-2(3x-11)-22

2. Then distribute O=6x-6x+22-22

3. Then combine like terms O= 0 the 22's cancel out as well as the x's

x= 0

4. plug 0 in for x in the first equation y=3(0)-11

5. y= -11

6. x=0 y=-11 (0,-11)
