Question

For the following system of equations, what is the x-value of the solution? (1 point)
-x+2y=6
6y=x+18

Answer 1

2y-6 = 6y-18
y=3, so x = 0

Answer 2

To solve for the x-value, we need to substitute the value we found for y into one of the original equations and solve for x.

Let's use the first equation:

-x + 2y = 6

Substituting y = 3:

-x + 2(3) = 6

Simplifying:

-x + 6 = 6

-x = 0

x = 0

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is (0, 3) and the x-value of the solution is 0.
