If you're looking for the solution to the system of equations, here's how we solve using substitution
We know that y = x - 1, so we can plug that into the first equation giving
2x - 3(x-1) = -1
Now distribute the 3 giving 2x - 3x + 3 = -1. After combining like terms we get -x + 3 = -1. Now subtract 3 from both sides, -x = -4, and multiply both sides by -1 to make x positive. x = 4
Now we can plug that into the second equation to get y
y = x - 1, and we know that x = 4, so y = 4 - 1, y = 3. The solution is (4, 3)

2x - 3y = -1
         y = x - 1

             2x - 3y = -1
     2x - 3(x - 1) = -1
2x - 3(x) + 3(1) = -1
       2x - 3x + 3 = -1
               -x + 3 = -1
                    - 3   - 3
                     -x = -4
                     -1    -1
                      x = 4

      y = x - 1
      y = 4 - 1
      y = 3
(x, y) = (4, 3)

How do I know if a positive integer is even based on its prime factorization?
faust18 [17]

To know if it's even based on it's prime factorization, check to see if it is a multiple of 2. If it is, it is an even number. If it is not, it is an odd number.

What is the value of x?<br><br> 27(x+4)=−6<br><br><br> −35<br><br> −25<br><br> 25<br><br> 35
Oksanka [162]

x = -38/9 !!!


27(x+4)=−6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

27(x+4)=−6

(27)(x)+(27)(4)=−6 (Distribute)

27x+108=−6

Step 2: Subtract 108 from both sides.

27x+108−108=−6−108

27x=−114

Step 3: Divide both sides by 27.

27x/27=−114/27

x=−389
