Question

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME

What is the solution to this system of equations?
x = 12 − y
2x + 3y = 29

A. x = 8, y = 4
B. x = 6, y = 6
C. x = 7, y = 5
D. x = 9, y = 3

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer would be C. (I just used the process of elimination)

Step-by-step explanation:

2(7) + 3(5) = 29

14 + 15 = 29

simple.....

Answer 2

Answer:

• $y=5$
• $x=7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute $x = 12 -y$ into $2x + 3y = 29$

You find that $y=5$.

Knowing y, you can plug that in for the equation:

$x = 12-5$

$x=7$

The answer is C

Hope this helps!!!
