-x+2y=6
7/2x+7y=14 solve with substitution

9514 1404 393

  (x, y) = (-1, 5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The only variable with a coefficient that has a magnitude of 1 is x in the first equation. Using that equation, we can write an expression for x:

  x = 2y -6

This can be substituted for x in the second equation.

  (7/2)(2y -6) +7y = 14

  7y -21 +7y = 14 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  14y = 35 . . . . . . . . . . . add 21

  y = 35/14 = 5/2 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

  x = 2(5/2) -6 = -1

The solution is (x, y) = (-1, 5/2).

it could 14.28 but if its not that one then it has to be the 17 one. hope this ! : )
