Sole by substitution.
-3x+2y=16
x-2y=-12

(-2,5)

Step 1: Rewrite equations

-3x+2y=16

x-2y=-12

Step 2: Changing the second equation

With substitution, you have to already have the equation to solve for the specific variable (ex: x=y+1;y=x+1). Since the equation doesn’t give us one, we can flip the second equation to give us this.

Let’s add 2y on both sides.

x-2y=-12
+2y +2y

x=2y-12

Now we have the equation to solve for x!

Step 3: Substituting

Now we need to substitute x into the first equation. Let’s do this now.

-3(2y-12)+2y=16

Step 4: Solving for y

-3(2y-12)+2y=16

*distribute*

-6y+36+2y=16

*combine like terms*

-4y+36=16

*subtract 36 on both sides*

-4y=-20

*divide both numbers by -4*

y=5

This is y! Now we need to solve for x.

Step 5: Solving for x

To find x, let’s just substitute y into the equation and solve

x=2y-12

x=2(5)-12

x=10-12

x=-2

Step 6: Ordered pair

(X,y) —> (-2,5)
