So far, it is known that the following it true:
y = 4x + 2y = 5x
To make the search for the solution easier, I'll assume that this is based on two different equations:
y = 4x + 2y
and
y = 5x
The first equation can be simplified like so:
y - y = 4x + 2y - y
0 = 4x + y
y = -4x
If you use substitution, the fact that y must equal either -4 times a number or 5 times a number can be used to find the following:
5x = -4x
5x + 4x = 0
9x = 0
x = 0
The only answer to this problem is x = 0 (zero).
how do you use the substitution method for this problem 2x-3y=-2 4x+y=24
By definition: 4x-10 = 5-x 4x+x = 5+10 5x = 15 x = 3 and y = 2
y = 4x-8 and y = 2x+10 4x-8 = 2x+10 4x-2x = 10+8 2x = 18 x = 9 Substitute the value of x into the original equations to find the value of y: Therefore: x = 9 and y = 28
You cant solve it unless it is an equation. To be an equation it must have an equals sign.
From second equation: y = 8 + 2xSubstitute for y in first equation: 3x + 16 + 4x = 2ie 7x = -14ie x = -2 and y = 4
4x+4y=16 y=5 4x+ 20=16 4x=-4 x=-1
how do you use the substitution method for this problem 2x-3y=-2 4x+y=24
By definition: 4x-10 = 5-x 4x+x = 5+10 5x = 15 x = 3 and y = 2
4x-y=2, thereforey=4x-2sub y into 3x+2y=6...3x+8x-4=611x=10x=10/11
Through a process of elimination and substitution the solutions are s = 8 and x = 5
y = 4x-8 and y = 2x+10 4x-8 = 2x+10 4x-2x = 10+8 2x = 18 x = 9 Substitute the value of x into the original equations to find the value of y: Therefore: x = 9 and y = 28

From second equation: y = 8 + 2xSubstitute for y in first equation: 3x + 16 + 4x = 2ie 7x = -14ie x = -2 and y = 4

4x-14
By a process of elimination and substitution the lines intersect at: (1/4, 0)
The answer to the problem of 13 equals -4x plus 9 is x equals -1.
