Math Problem Statement

\begin{aligned}

& 13x-6y = 22

\\

& x=y+6

\end{aligned}

Solution

We have the system of equations:

& 13x - 6y = 22 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \\ & x = y + 6 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \end{aligned}$$ ### Step 1: Substitute $$x$$ from Equation 2 into Equation 1 Since $$x = y + 6$$, we replace $$x$$ in Equation 1: $$13(y + 6) - 6y = 22$$ ### Step 2: Expand and Solve for $$y$$ $$13y + 78 - 6y = 22$$ $$7y + 78 = 22$$ $$7y = 22 - 78$$ $$7y = -56$$ $$y = -8$$ ### Step 3: Solve for $$x$$ Substituting $$y = -8$$ into Equation 2: $$x = -8 + 6$$ $$x = -2$$ ### Final Answer: $$\boxed{(-2, -8)}$$ Would you like a detailed explanation of any step? 😊 --- ### Related Questions: 1.
