9x +3y = -68

-2x + y = 18

-2x + y = 18

-2x + 2x + y = 18 + 2x

y = 18 + 2x

Substitute 18 + 2x for y in the first equation, and solve for x:

9x +3y = -68

9x + 3(18 + 2x) = -68

9x + 54 + 6x = -68

15x + 54 = -68

15x + 54 - 54 = -68 - 54

15x = -122

15x ÷ 15 = -122 ÷ 15

x = - 122/15 or x = -8 2/15

Substitute -122/15 for x to y = 18 + 2x and solve for y:

y = 18 + 2x

y = 18 + 2(-122/15)

y = 18 - 244/15

y = [(18)(15) - 244]/15

y = (270 - 244)/15

y = 26/15

Check:

Thus, the solution is (-8 2/15, 26/15)

Can you solve the substitution solution of 9x plus 3y equals -68 and -2x plus y equals 18 an give order of pairs?

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.
