What is the value of x in the solution to the following system of equations? (5 points)

x − 2y = 2
3x + y = 6

Respuesta :

Answer:

x = 2 and y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 2y = 2

3x + y = 6

using the substitution method, we solve the first equation for 'x' to get

x = 2y + 2

plug that into 'x' in the second equation

3(2y + 2) + y = 6

6y + 6 + y = 6

7y = 0

y = 0

find 'x':

3x + 0 = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

Answer:

x=2
