What is the solution to the system of equations below? -4x+6y=-18 and y=-2x+21

x=9 and y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by substitution.

−4x+6y=−18 and y=−2x+21

Rewrite equations:

y=−2x+21;−4x+6y=−18

Step: Solve  y=−2x+21for y:

y=−2x+21

Step: Substitute−2x+21foryin−4x+6y=−18:

−4x+6y=−18

−4x+6(−2x+21)=−18

−16x+126=−18(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−16x+126+−126=−18+−126(Add -126 to both sides)

−16x=−144

−16x

−16

=

−144

−16

(Divide both sides by -16)

x=9

Step: Substitute9forxiny=−2x+21:

y=−2x+21

y=(−2)(9)+21

y=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

x=9 and y=3

answer: the first graph
