Question

Solve the system of equations.

y = 2x
y = –x + 6

X=
Y=

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2  y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x

y = –x + 6

Set the two equations equal to each other

2x = -x+6

Add x to each side

2x+x =-x+x+6

3x = 6

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 6/3

x =2

Now find y

y = 2x

y =2(2)

y = 4
