Equation 1: y = -2x + 1
Equation 2: y = 2x - 3
Since both equations already have y isolated, we are able to simply set the right side of both equations equal to each other. Since we know that the value of y must be the same, we can do this.
-2x + 1 = 2x - 3
1 = 4x - 3
4 = 4x
x = 1
Then, we need to plug our value of x back into either of the original two equations and solve for y. I will be plugging x back into equation 2 above.
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(1) - 3
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
Hope this helps!! :)
When you multiply two integers, or in fact any two numbers, you are finding the product of those two numbers;
So finding the product is done through multiplication.
Answer:
-5/4 and -7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
I mean it could be read that way but that's the way most people read fractions. 11 and 8/10. Most people I know read decimals like that as 11 point 8. So yes I suppose it's true; it's not wrong, but most people don't say it like that. And I don't know how they taught you to read it in your math course.
