-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P

This question is incomplete. Can you maybe add more information?

I don't really know how to explain it, but this is the answer
Answer:
Figure out what x is for both equations, then you can tell if the equations are the same
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 4x+1=9
x = 2
4 x 2= 8
2x+1=5
x = 2
2 x 2 = 4
4 does not = 9 so no.
Pick an x-value between the interval givens. I’ll choose “1”. If you sub in one for both f(x) and g(x) you get that f(1) = -1.5 and g(1) = -0.5. Now you can divide f(1) by g(1) to get average rate of change. -1.5/-0.5 = 3.
