Solve the system of equations by substitution.

4x+y=14
y=3

1 answer

Since we know that y = 3, we can substitute this value into the first equation:

4x + 3 = 14

Solving for x, we subtract 3 from both sides:

4x = 11

Dividing both sides by 4, we find:

x = 11/4

So the solution to the system of equations is x = 11/4 and y = 3.
