Solve the following system of equations: 1. y - 3x + 15 = 10 2. 6 - 4x = y

The first equation can be further simplified so first do that by subtracting 15 to both sides

y - 3x + (15 - 15) = 10 - 15

y - 3x = -5

We know from the second equation that y is 6 - 4x so in the equation y - 3x = -5 plug in 6 - 4x for y

(6 - 4x) - 3x = -5

6 - 4x - 3x = -5

Combine like terms

6 - 7x = -5

(6 - 6) - 7x = -5 - 6

-7x = -11

Isolate x

-7x/-7 = -11/-7

x = 11/7

To solve for y plug in 11/7 in for x in the equation 6 - 4x = y

6 - 4(11/7) =y

6 - 44/7 = y

y = -2/7

so...

(11/7 , -2/7)

Hope this helped!

1.) Solving for X problem 1#

y-3x+15=10

-3x+15-15=10-15-y

-3x=-y-5

-3x/-3=-y-5/3

x=(-y-5)/3

2.) Solving for Y problem 1#

y-3x+15=10

y-3x+3x+15-15=10-15+3x

y=3x-5

1.) Solving for X problem 2#

6-4x=y

-4x+6-6=y-6

-4x/4=y-6/4

x=(y-6)/4

2.) Solving for Y problem 2#

6-4x=y

y=-4x+6

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
