To find the value of y in the given system of equations, we need to solve the equations step by step.
The first equation is:
1. y = 11x + 1
Now, we can substitute the expression for y into the second equation:
2. 11x + 12y = 12
Substituting y from equation 1 into equation 2:
11x + 12(11x + 1) = 12
Now, distribute 12 into the parentheses:
11x + 132x + 12 = 12
Combining like terms gives us:
143x + 12 = 12
Next, we will isolate the term with x:
143x = 12 – 12
143x = 0
Now, divide both sides by 143:
x = 0
Now that we have the value of x, we can substitute it back into the first equation to find y:
y = 11(0) + 1
y = 1
So, the value of y that forms the solution of the system is y = 1.
