Question

Y = x – 6

x = –4
What is the solution to the system of equations?

(–8, –4)
(–4, –8)
(–4, 4)
(4, –4)

Answer 1

Well x has to be -4 because it says x=-4, and then if you plug -4 into the first equation you'll get y=-4-6 so y=-10. I'm assuming there is a typo, but the answer choice would probably be (-4,-8)

Answer 2

(-4,-10)

None option is correct.

Explanation:

Given: System of equation

y = x – 6 and x = –4

Here we have two variable system of equation.

Using substitution property to solve for x and y

Put x=-4 into y = x- 6

y = -4 -6

y = -10

Thus, The solution is (-4,-10)

Hence, The solution of system of equation (-4,-10)
