Question

If x=5, solve for y (Recall you can use either original equation).y=x-6-2x+3y=-13

Answer 1

We need to find the value of y given x is 5.

Very simple!

We take the first equation and plug in "5" into x and solve for y. It is shown below:

`\begin{gathered} y=x-6 \\ \text{if x = 5, then} \\ y=(5)-6 \\ y=5-6 \\ y=-1 \end{gathered}`

Answer

`y=-1`
