- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define Systems
3x + 4y = 14
x = 2y - 12
Step 2: Solve for y
Substitution
- Substitute in x: 3(2y - 12) + 4y = 14
- Distribute 3: 6y - 36 + 4y = 14
- Combine like terms: 10y - 36 = 14
- Isolate y term: 10y = 50
- Isolate y: y = 5
Step 3: Solve for x
- Define equation: x = 2y - 12
- Substitute in y: x = 2(5) - 12
- Multiply: x = 10 - 12
- Subtract: x = -2
