If a point (-3\5,b) is on the graph of the equation 2x+3y=6 and also on the graph of y=x+3 what is the value of b?

Verified Answer :

kuush

b=12\5 hope this helps you

(-3/5,b)..... b us ur y value...so sub in -3/5  for x in ur other equations

2x + 3y = 6
2(-3/5) + 3y = 6
-6/5 + 3y = 6..multiply by -5
6 - 15y = -30
-15y = -30 - 6
-15y = -36
y = -36/-15 reduces to 12/5

so b = 12/5
