Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We have two values for y. Since y=y, this means that −2x + 4 and − 1/3x − 1 are equal as well, so we can put them in an equation and solve for x.

−2x + 4 = − 1/3x − 1

We subtract 4 from both sides.

-2x=-1/3x-5

We add 1/3 x to both sides.

-5/3x=-5

We divide both sides by -1 2/3.

x=3

Now, we plug this into one of the original equations to find y.

y=-2(3)+4

y=-6+4

y=-2

Therefore, the solution is (3,-2) or x=3 and y=-2.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

Find two numbers if their sum is 6.1 and their difference is 1.6
Nimfa-mama [501]
A+b=6.1 ---(1)
a-b=1.6 ---(2)

(1)+(2); 2a=7.7
then a=3.85
so b=a-1.6 = 3.85-1.6 = 2.25

so that the two numbers are 2.25 and 3.85
