A student uses the substitution method to solve the system of equations below algebraically.

2x – y = 5
3x + 2y = -3

Which equation could be used?


o  3x + 2(2x – 5) = -3

o  3x + 2(5 – 2x) = -3

o  3(y + 5/2) + 2y = -3

o  3(5/2 – y) + 2y = -3

Which linear system has been correctly solved for one of the variables from the following system?

2x – y = -1
2x + y = -7


o  2x – y = -1 

     y = 2x – 7

o  2x – y = -1 

    y= -2x +7

o  y = 2x + 1

    2x + y = -7

o  y = -2x + 7

    2x + y = -7

Which linear system has the solution (6, 6)?

 o  3 x + y = 4

     4 x – 3 y = 1

o  4 x + 3 y = 0

    2 x – y = 0

o  4 x – 3 y = -1

   -2 x + y = -3

o  x + y = 12 

    3x – 2y = 6
