Hello!


\Large \underline{\textbf{\sf We~ know:}}\\\\\sf x = 1\\\\3x + y = 9\\\\y = -4x + 10\\ \\\\\Large \underline{\textbf{\sf We~ search:}}\\\\The~ value ~of~ y\\\\\\\Large \underline{\textbf{\sf We~ solve:}}\\\\\\


\sf 3x + y = 9\\\\3*1 + y = 9\\\\3 + y = 9\\\\y = 9 - 3\\\\\boxed{\sf y = 6}


\Large \underline{\textbf{\sf We~ verify:}}\\\\\sf 3x + y = 9\\\\3*1 + 6 = 9\\\\\\\\\sf y = -4x + 10\\\\-4*1 + 10 = 6\\\\\\\Large \underline{\textbf{\sf Conclusion:}}\\\\


\sf In ~this ~system ~of~ equations,~the ~value ~of ~x~ is ~1~and~the~value~of~y~is~6.
