Solve the system of equations by using substitution

Y=2x+3
Y=x+2

Since our first equation reads y = 2x + 3, we can substitute a 2x + 3

in for y in our second equation and then solve from there.

So we have 2x + 3 = x + 2.

Now subtract x from both sides to get x + 3 = 2.

Now subtract 3 from both sides to get x = -1.

To find y, plug -1 back into either equation.

I have chosen to plug it into the second.

So we have y = (-1) + 2 which simplifies to 1.

So our solution to this system is (-1, 1).

0 is its x and y coordinate

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
