Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.

4x−2y=14
y=12x−1

The answer is (-0.7, -9.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since we are using the substitution method, and we know that y = 2x-1, in the first equation, plug that into y.  It should look like this:

4x-2(12x-1) = 14

4x -24x + 2 = 14

2) Combine like terms and continue to simplify until you get a direct answer for each variable.

-20x + 2 = 14.

-20x = 12.

x = -7/10 (or -0.7)

3) Now we know what x equals, so to find our y-coordinate, we will plug this into either equation.

y = 12(-7/10) -1

y= -84/10 -1

y= -9.4

4) Now that we have our x value and y value, we know our point. The solution is (-0.7, -9.4).

answer: 180

step-by-step explanation:

12-2=10

20-2=18

10x18=180
