Question

Y=-5x+6
y=3x-2

Find the solution to the system of equations.

Answer 1

Answer:

(1, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 5x + 6 → (1)

y = 3x - 2 → (2)

Since both equations express y in terms of x, equate the right sides

3x - 2 = - 5x + 6 ( add 5x to both sides )

8x - 2 = 6 ( add 2 to both sides )

8x = 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y

Substituting x = 1 in (2)

y = 3(1) - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1

Solution is (1, 1 )

Answer 2

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:
