Step: Solvey=2x+6for y:
y=2x+6
Step: Substitute2x+6foryin3y=x−2:
3y=x−2
3(2x+6)=x−2
6x+18=x−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)
6x+18+−x=x−2+−x(Add -x to both sides)
5x+18=−2
5x+18+−18=−2+−18(Add -18 to both sides)
5x=−20
5x/5=−20/5
(Divide both sides by 5)
x=−4
Step: Substitute−4forxiny=2x+6:
y=2x+6
y=(2)(−4)+6
y=−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=−4 and y=−2
