47
<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
46
<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
48
<p>Using substitution: From the equation 3x - 2y = 4, express x: 3x = 4 + 2y x = (4 + 2y) ÷ 3</p>
47
<p>Using substitution: From the equation 3x - 2y = 4, express x: 3x = 4 + 2y x = (4 + 2y) ÷ 3</p>
49
<p>Substitute into the second equation 4x + 5y = 9: 4((4 + 2y) ÷ 3) + 5y = 9 (16 + 8y) ÷ 3 + 5y = 9</p>
48
<p>Substitute into the second equation 4x + 5y = 9: 4((4 + 2y) ÷ 3) + 5y = 9 (16 + 8y) ÷ 3 + 5y = 9</p>

<p>Multiply through by 3 to eliminate the denominator: 16 + 8y + 15y = 27 23y = 11 y = 11⁄23</p>
49
<p>Multiply through by 3 to eliminate the denominator: 16 + 8y + 15y = 27 23y = 11 y = 11⁄23</p>
