Question

System of equation.
Find the value of X
Y=3x+5
2y=4x+24

Please help with steps to solve this problem. Thank for your help.

Answer 1

Y=3x+5
2y=4x+24

2(3x + 5) = 4x + 24
6x + 10 = 4x + 24
x = 14

Answer 2

Sorry, Ms. Sue. Noticed a mistake in the last line.

2(3x+5) = 4x + 24
6x + 10 = 4x + 24
2x = 14
x = 7

Answer 3

Thanks, Matt.
