Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

y = 2x + 9

y = -x + 6

(-1,7)

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

y = x - 4

y = 4x - 10

(2,-2)

100

y = 4x + 7

x + y = 3

x + 4x + 7 = 3

100

y = 2x - 2

y = 2x + 9

2x - 2 = 2x + 9

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

y = x + 4

y = -x + 2

(-1,3)

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

y = 2x + 5

y = 3x - 1

(6,17)

200

x = 2y

3x + 2y = 3

3(2y) + 2y = 3

200

y = 3x + 1

x + 2y = -3

x + 2 (3x + 1) = -3

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

y = 1 

7x - 8y = 6

(2, 1)

300

2x + y = 1

y = -3x + 7

2x - 3x + 7 = 1

300

y = 5x - 9

y = 5x + 9

5x - 9 = 5x + 9

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

2x = y - 10

x + 7 = y

(-3,4)

400

x = 5

3x - 2y = -3

3(5) - 2y = -3

400

x = 11

y - 8x = -2

y - 8(11) = -2

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution:

y - x = 0

2x - 5y = 9

(-3,-3)

500

x = 4y + 2

3x + 5y = 10

3 (4y + 2) + 5y = 10

y = 7x

y = -2x + 6


7x = -2x + 6
