To solve the system of equations using the substitution method, we start with the given equations:
1. \( y = 4x + 6 \)
2. \( 3x + 2y = 12 \)
We will substitute \( y \) from the first equation into the second equation.
Substituting \( y \) into the second equation:
\[
3x + 2(4x + 6) = 12
\]
Now, simplify the equation:
\[
3x + 8x + 12 = 12
\]
Combine like terms:
\[
11x + 12 = 12
\]
Subtract 12 from both sides:
\[
11x = 0
\]
Now, solve for \( x \):
\[
x = 0
\]
Now that we have \( x \), we can find \( y \) by substituting \( x = 0 \) back into the first equation:
\[
y = 4(0) + 6 = 6
\]
Thus, the solution to the system of equations is:
\[
(x, y) = (0, 6)
\]
Therefore, the answer is:
**(0, 6)**
1. \( y = 4x + 6 \)
2. \( 3x + 2y = 12 \)
We will substitute \( y \) from the first equation into the second equation.
Substituting \( y \) into the second equation:
\[
3x + 2(4x + 6) = 12
\]
Now, simplify the equation:
\[
3x + 8x + 12 = 12
\]
Combine like terms:
\[
11x + 12 = 12
\]
Subtract 12 from both sides:
\[
11x = 0
\]
Now, solve for \( x \):
\[
x = 0
\]
Now that we have \( x \), we can find \( y \) by substituting \( x = 0 \) back into the first equation:
\[
y = 4(0) + 6 = 6
\]
Thus, the solution to the system of equations is:
\[
(x, y) = (0, 6)
\]
Therefore, the answer is:
**(0, 6)**
