Question

HELP! Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations.

A. 6x-2y=5

B. (-3,7)

C. (6,-2)

D. No solution

Answer 1

No solution

Explanation:

6x-2y = 5

-3x + y = 7 ----> y = 3x + 7 ( solve for y by adding 3x to both sides.

Substitute

6x-2(3x+7) = 5 Distribute

6x - 6x + 14 = 5 Combine like terms

14 = 5 False statement

No solution
