Solving by Substitution Method Steps

Find the y-value using substitution.

x + 2y = 2

x = -4y + 2

• y = -3

• y = 2

• y = -2

• y = 0

Solve using substitution.

y = -6x + 5

-2x + y = 5

• (-3, -6)

• (-6, 3)

• (0, 5)

• (-3, 5)

Solve using substitution.

y = -3x + 11

5x + y = 21

• (1, -5)

• (1, 5)

• (-4, 5)

• (5, -4)

Solve using substitution.

x = -3y - 8

x - 2y = -3

• (5, -1)

• (-5, 1)

• (-5,-1)

• (1,-5)

Solve using substitution.

y = -2x + 18

x = 5

• (5, 8)

• (-5, 8)

• (2, 8)

• (-2, 8)

Solve the system of equations using substitution:
