9x+3y=-68
-2x+y=18
We are asked to solve with substitution so we first write y=18+2x.
Let us substitute this into the first equation.
9x+3(18+2x)=-68
9x+54+6x=-68
15x=-68-54=-122
so x=-122/15
and y =18+2(-122/15)==18+-244/15=270/15-244/15=26/15
So the solution is (-122/15,26/15) which is an ordered pair.
2x plus 3y
Great. A multiple choice question without the choices.
The answer is - not are : (1, 7).
The answer is - not are : (5, 1).
16
The answer is - not are - (-6, 9).
There are an infinite number of ordered pairs that satisfy the equation.
x = 3 and y = -4
x = 3 and y = 5
x = 1 and y = -1 (1, -1)
Simultaneous equations.
It is the set of infinitely many ordered pairs, (x, y) such that the two satisfy the given equation.
