Q. Solve the system by substitution.y=5x+7y=6x(□,□)
Set Equations Equal: Since both equations are already solved for y, we can set them equal to each other to find x.y=5x+7y=6xSet 5x+7 equal to 6x.5x+7=6x
Solve for x: Solve for x by subtracting 5x from both sides of the equation.5x+7−5x=6x−5x7=x
Substitute and Find y: Substitute the value of x back into one of the original equations to find y. We can use y=5x+7.y=5(7)+7y=35+7y=42
Write Ordered Pair: Write the solution as an ordered pair (x,y). The solution is (7,42).
