Instructions:Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Consider this system of linear equations: 22x - y = - 23 (equation 1) 11x + 12y = 1 (equation 2) To find the value of x, you need to substitute in equation 2. The value of x is.

The given system of equations is

22x - y = - 23 (1)

11x + 12y = 1 (2)

Write (1) as

y = 22x + 23 (3)

Substitute (3) into (2).

11x + 12 (22x + 23) = 1

11x + 264x + 276 = 1

275x = 1 - 276 = - 275

x = - 1

From (3), obtain

y = 22 * (-1) + 23 = 1

Answer: x = - 1
