Solve the system of equations using substitution y=x-1 and y=-2x+5

Since the two equations equal y, set them equal to each other.

x-1=-2x+5

From there, solve for x.

First get x on one side, by using the addition property of equality.

x-1=-2x+5
3x-1=5

Isolate x by adding 1.
3x=6

Lastly get x all by itself by dividing each side by 3.
x=2

You can now substitute your x-value, 2, into one of the equations (or both, if you wish; either one will result in the same answer.)

y=x-1
y=2-1
y=1

OR

y=-2x+5
y=-2(2)+5
y=-4+5
y=1

Final answer:
x=2 and y=1

Any questions or anything you would like me to clarify, feel free to ask :)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We use BODMAS/BIDMAS here.

First, we do 5 × 2, as multiplication comes before subtracting and adding.

5 × 2 = 10

Now we can just add and subtract.

5 - 10 = -5

-5 + 11 = 6

Help no time plzzzz plz plz​

Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

<E in ∆AED ≅ <E in ∆CEB.

Both are 90°.

Side ED ≅ Side EB

Side AD ≅ Side CB.

Thus, two sides (ED and AD) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆AED are congruent to corresponding two sides (EB and CB) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆CEB. Therefore, by A-S-S Congruence Theorem, both triangles are congruent to each other not by SSS.
