Answer:
x = 1, y = 6
Point: (1, 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x + 4
3x + y = 9
Since it’s saying that y = 2x + 4, substitute y for y = 2x + 4 in the second equation.
3x + 2x + 4 = 9
Add 3x + 2x (combining like terms)
5x + 4 = 9
Subtract 4 from 9
5x = 5
Solve for x
x = 1
Use x in the first equation.
y = 2x + 4
y = 2(1) + 4
y = 2 + 4
y = 6
Therefore x = 1 and y = 6

Check if the work is correct!
y = 6
x = 1
6 = 2(1) + 4
6 = 2 + 4
6 = 6
3(1) + (6) = 9
3 + 6 = 9
9 = 9
