Solve the following system of equations by the substitution method.
5x=y+6
2x-3y=4
what is the value of the y-coordinate?
c-3113

Step-by-step explanation:

5x=y+6   equ 1

2x-3y=4   equ 2

5x - 6 = y

y = 5x - 6

substitute in equ 2

2x-3(5x - 6) =4

2x - 3*5x + 3*6 = 4

2x - 15x + 18 = 4

- 13x = 4 - 18

-13x = -14

x = -14/-13

x = 14/13

substitute  in equ 1

5*14/13 = y+6  

70/13 - 6 = y

y =  ( 70 - 78)/13

y = -8/13

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
