Question
solve each system of equations by substitution.
- \
$$\begin{cases} x + 3y = 9 \\\\ 4x - 2y = -6 \\end{cases}$$
6.
Step1: Isolate x in first equation
$x = 9 - 3y$
Step2: Substitute x into second equation
$4(9 - 3y) - 2y = -6$
Step3: Simplify and solve for y
$36 - 12y - 2y = -6$
$36 - 14y = -6$
$-14y = -6 - 36$
$-14y = -42$
$y = 3$
Step4: Substitute y back to find x
$x = 9 - 3(3)$
$x = 9 - 9$
$x = 0$
