Given equations are,
\ ----------(1)
---------(2)
The first equation is already solved for y,
\So, substitute for y in the second equation.
(Second equation)
(Substitute
)
(Add:
)
Apply subtraction property of equality: If a = b then .
(Subtract 1 from each side)
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
(Subtract:
)
(Divide each side by 9)
(Cancel common terms)
(Divide:
)
Substitute for x in either equation to find y.
(First equation)
