Given:


y = 4 x + 6 \\ y = 8 x + 6

Substitute into one of the equations,


= > 4x + 6 = 8x + 6


= > 4x - 8x = 6 - 6


= > - 4x = 0


= > x = 0

Substituting value of "x" in any one equation,


= > y = 4x + 6


= > y = (4 * 0) + 6


= > y = 0 + 6


= > y = 6

Hence, the values are:-


x = 0


y = 6

Answer:

y = 6 and x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

  • y = 4 x + 6 _____equation 1
  • y = 8 x + 6 ______equation 2

Solving using substitution method:

4 x + 6 = 8 x + 6

8x - 4x = 6 - 6

4x = 0

x = 0

Find y using equation 1:

y = 4 x + 6

y = 4(0) + 6

y = 6
