Question

Please help me solve this by substitution:
y=x+2
3x+3y=6

Answer 1

x = 0, y = 2

Explanation:

1. solve the equation for x

3x + 3(x + 2) = 6

2. Substitute the given value of x into the simplest equation y= x + 2

y = 0 + 2

3. Solve the equation for y

y= 2

4. The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair ( x, y)

( x, y) = ( 0, 2)
