To solve the system of equations, we have two equations:
- 1. y = x + 6
- 2. x + 4 = 8
Let’s first solve the second equation for x:
x + 4 = 8
x = 8 - 4
x = 4
Now that we have x = 4, we can substitute this value into the first equation to find y:
y = x + 6
y = 4 + 6
y = 10
So, the solution to the system of equations is (4, 10). This means that when x is 4, then y is 10, satisfying both equations.
