Lin Ying got 10 more red envelopes than her cousin Lin Ping. If Lin Ying got a total of 28 red envelops, write an equation could be use to find the number of red envelopes Lin Ping got. Solve the equation.

The value of x in this system of equations is 1. 3x + y = 9 y = –4x + 10 substitute the value of y in the first equation: combine like terms: apply the subtraction property of equality: apply the division property of equality: 3x + (–4x + 10) = 9 –x + 10 = 9 –x = –1 x = 1 what is the value of y?
