One can also solve this by calculation:
y=2x-9
y=-2x-1
-
Rearrange either equation to find x. I'll use the first:
y=2x-9
2x = y+9
x = (y+9)/2
Now use this value of x in the second equation:
y = -2x-1
y =-2((y+9)/2)-1
y = (-2y-18)/2)-1
y = -y -9 - 1
2y = -10
y = -5
Now use -5 for y in the rearranged equation:
y = -2x-1
-5 = -2x-1
-2x = -4
x = 2
Solution is (2,-5)
But the question wants a graph solution, which is also fun when you use DESMOS.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Modeling With Functions</u>
It's a common practice to try to mathematically represent the relation between two or more variables. It allows us to better understand the behavior of the phenomena being observed and, more importantly, to be able to predict future values.
The specific situation stated in the question relates how Taylor buys nail polish for $3.95 each, with a maximum of $30 to spend. If x is the number of nail polish purchased, then the total cost will be
But we know Taylor has a limited budget of $30, so the total cost cannot exceed that amount
Solving the inequality for x
We round down to
Of course, the lower limit of x is 0, because Taylor cannot purchase negative quantities of nail polish
Our model is now complete if the state the limits of x, or its domain
