Question

What is the value of x and y to the solution to this system of equations? 6x + y = -59 x = -2y +9​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = -2y + 9 in the first equation to find y:

$6( - 2y + 9) + y = - 59$

Use the Distributive Property:

$- 12y + 54 + y = - 59$

$- 11y + 54 = - 59$

Subtract 54 from both sides:

$- 11y = - 113$

Divide each side by -11:

$y = 10 \frac{3}{11}$

Substitute y = 10 3/11 into the second equation:

$x = - 2(10 \frac{3}{11} ) + 9$

Multiply:

$x = - 20 \frac{6}{11} + 9$

$x = - 11\frac{6}{11}$

Solution point:

(-11 6/11, 10 3/11)

Answer 2

Solution :

• The value of x = $\sf \dfrac{ - 127}{11}$

• The value of y = $\sf \: \dfrac{113}{11}$
