Step-by-step explanation:

3x−9y=−39, 3x−6y=−21 : x=5, y=6

Steps

[ 3x−9y=−393x−6y=−21 ]

Show Steps

Isolate x for 3x−9y=−39: x=−13+3y

Substitute x=−13+3y

[ 3(−13+3y)−6y=−21 ]

Show Steps

Simplify

[ −39+3y=−21 ]

Show Steps

Isolate y for −39+3y=−21: y=6

For x=−13+3y

Substitute y=6

x=−13+3· 6

Simplify

x=5

The solutions to the system of equations are:

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x
