Use the system of equations to answer the questions.

2x + 3y = 3

y = 8 - 3r

The value of y from the second equation is substituted back into the first equation. What is the resulting equation?

What is the value of x?

What is the value of y?

the value of x and y is 3 and - 1 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question

let

2x + 3y = 3 ... equation 1

y = 8 - 3x ... equation 2

put y = 8 - 3x in equation 1

2x + 3y = 3 ... equation 1

2x + 3 (8 - 3x) = 3

2x + 24 - 9x = 3

24 - 7x = 3

24 = 3 + 7x

24 - 3 = 7x

21 = 7x

divide both sides by 7

x = 3

put x = 3 in equation 2

y = 8 - 3x ... equation 2

y = 8 - 3 (3)

y = 8 - 9

y = - 1

therefore the value of x and y is 3 and - 1 respectively.
