Question

Name the point of intersection. y= 2x – 1 y=x+1

Answer 1

Given data:

The first equation is y= 2x – 1.

The second equation is y=x+1​.

Equate both the equations.

$\begin{gathered} 2x-1=x+1 \\ x=2 \end{gathered}$

The y coordinate is,

$\begin{gathered} y=2(2)-1 \\ =3 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the point of intersection is (2, 3).
