Question

Solve the linear system by graphing x+y=-7 and y =x+3

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -5

y= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation y=x+3-------eqn 1

x+y= -7-------eqn2

x+(x+3)= -7 (since there is no value before the bracket is 1, so multiply by 1)

x+x+3= -7

2x+3=-7

2x=-7-3

2x=-10

x=-10/2

x=-5

Insert x value in equation 1

y= -5+3

y=-2
