To solve the system by substitution, we can set the two equations equal to each other:
-2x = -9x + 21
Now, let's solve for x:
Add 9x to both sides:
7x = 21
Divide by 7:
x = 3
Now that we have found x, we can plug it back into one of the equations to solve for y. Let's use the first equation y = -2x:
y = -2(3)
y = -6
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = -6.
-2x = -9x + 21
Now, let's solve for x:
Add 9x to both sides:
7x = 21
Divide by 7:
x = 3
Now that we have found x, we can plug it back into one of the equations to solve for y. Let's use the first equation y = -2x:
y = -2(3)
y = -6
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = -6.
