Use the system of equations to answer the questions.

2x + 3y = 3

y = 8 – 3x

The value of y from the second equation is substituted back into the first equation. What is the resulting equation?
2(8 – 3x) + 3x = 3
2x + 3(8 – 3x) = 3
2x + 3y = 8 – 3x

What is the value of x?
–3
–1
3

What is the value of y?
–1
1
3

2x + 3(8 - 3x) = 3

x = 3

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 3

y = 8 – 3x

2x + 3(8 - 3x) = 3

2x + 24 - 9x = 3

7x = 21

x = 3

y = 8 - 3(3)

y = -1

could you reply to this with the question so i can ?

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
