Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y = 2x + 3

y = x + 2

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitution

  1. Substitute in y:                                                                                                  2x + 3 = x + 2
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract x on both sides:                         x + 3 = 2
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides:                        x = -1

Step 3: Solve for y

  1. Substitute in x [Original Equation]:                                                                  y = -1 + 2
  2. Add:                                                                                                                    y = 1

Answer:

x = -3, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve an equation using substitution you need to make one of the variables values opposite of one another. For example, 4's opposite would be -4. Moving on, we multiply the bottom equation by -2. That gives us y = -2x -4. We combine like values and the remaing equation is y = -1. Finally, we can insert our value;-1 = x +2. We do inverse operations and we are left with x = -3.
