Answer:
(5, 11 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 3x - 4 → (1)
y = 2x + 1 → (2)
Substitute y = 3x - 4 into (2)
3x - 4 = 2x + 1 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x - 4 = 1 ( add 4 to both sides )
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equationsfor corresponding value of y
Substituting into (2)
y = 2(5) + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11
solution is (5, 11 )
Answer:
This is a system. put the first equation under the second one and subtract. y - y = 0. 2x - 3x = -x. 1 - (-4) = 5. so the result is 0 = -x +5 or x = 5. plug x into either equation and y = 11. the answer is (5, 11).
