Steps:
- Substitute y = 3 into the equation to solve for x
- Simplify the equation
- Solve for x
- Write the answer as an ordered pair
Reasons:
- By substituting y = 3 into the equation, we can eliminate one variable and solve for the other
- Simplifying the equation makes it easier to solve for x
- Solving for x gives us the value of x in the system of equations
- Writing the answer as an ordered pair gives the solution to the system of linear equations
Match the steps and the reasons to solce the system of linear equations algebraically.
4x - 9y = 5
y = 3
blank substitute y = 3 into the equation to solve for x
4x - 27 = 5 simplify
4x = 32 blank both sides of the equation
x = 8 divide 4 on both sides of the equation
