Short Answer

Expert verified

The solution set is (0,3).

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

In the following exercises, we have to solve the systems of equations by substitution.
5x−2y=−6y=3x+3

02

Step 2. Putting the value of y from the second equation in the first equation .

5x−2(3x+3)=−65x−6x-6=−6−x-6=−6Add6onbothside−x-6+6=−6+6−x=0x=0

03

Step 3. Putting the value of x in the equation y=3x+3.

y=3×0+3y=0+3y=3
