Answer: y=7,x=3
Steps:
y = 2x + 1
3x + y = 16
Substitute y = 2x + 1
3x + 2x + 1 = 16
Simplify
5x+1=16
Isolate x for 5x + 1 = 16: x = 3
For y = 2x + 1
Substitute x = 3
y = 2 · 3 + 1
Simplify
y = 7
The solutions to the system of equations are:
y = 7, x = 3

to get the equation of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, let's use those two points in the picture below.
keeping in mind that for the point-slope form, either point will do, in this case we used the second one, but the first one would have worked just the same.
Answer:
Larger number(x)=20
Step-by-step explanation:
They're saying that the larger number 3 times is EQUAL(the same) to 4 times the smaller number.
The smallest number=35-x.
The larger number= x.
3 times the larger number=3x
4 times the smaller number=4(35-x)
Now, input it into an equation and solve:
3x=4(35-x) Distribute by multiplying 4 with 35 and x.
3x+4x=140-4x+4x Get 140 by itself by adding 4x.
7x/7=140/7 Divide.
x=20
Since x= the larger number, x=20.
Answer is 8 hope this helps
