What is the solution to this system of equations y=x+6 and y=-.5x+3

Sagot :

Answer:

x=-6, y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

it's impossible to fully solve an equation where 2 variables are unknown. So we have to make it equal to 1 set. to do this, we have to think logically.

if y=x+6, then that means wherever it says y, we can put x+6. because x+6=x+6, right? so we plug x+6 into the second equation and get.

x+6=0.5x+3

to solve for x we subtract 6 from one side and 0.5 from the other and get

0.5x=-3

then we multiply both sides by 2 to make be a whole number

x=-6

now we just plug this into either equation. because the first one is easier, we can just set it up as

y=(-6)+6

which means y=0
