User: solve the system of equations by using the substitution method.2x-3y=18 and y=x-8

Weegy: 2x-3y=18 or, 2x-3(x-8)= 18, 2x-3x+24=18, -x=18-24,-x=-6,x=6. so, y= 6-8=-2

User: solve the system of equations by using the substitution method.2x-3y=18 and y=x-8 what is the ordered pair solution

Weegy: 2x-3y=18 or, 2x-3(x-8)= 18, 2x-3x+24=18, -x=18-24,-x=-6,x=6. so, y= 6-8=-2

User: does this many it has many solutions

Weegy: you can multiply the values of x,y with same no. for getting more solutions like x=12,y=-4 or, x=18,y= -6 etc

solve the system of equation by using the substitution method. 2x-3y=18 y=x-8 what is the solution. or is it infinitely many solutions or there is no solution.

Weegy: 2x-3y=18 or, 2x-3(x-8)= 18, 2x-3x+24=18, -x=18-24,-x=-6,x=6. so, y= 6-8=-2 (More)

Masamune

6x + 8y = 44 ;
4x - 8y = -64;

(6x + 8y = 44) + (4x - 8y = -64) ;
10x = -20 ;
x = -20/10 ;
x = -2 ;

6(-2) + 8y = 44 ;
-12 + 8y = 44 ;
8y = 44 + 12 ;
8y = 56 ;
y = 56/8 ;
y = 7 ;

Solution set: (-2, 7)
