2x-y=8...(1)
x+y=7....(2)

from (2)
y=7-x....(3)

put (3) into (1)
2x-(7-x)=8
2x-7+x=8
2x+x=8+7
3x=15
x=5.....(4)

put (4) into (2)
x+y=7
5+y=7
y=7-5
y=2

Hope it helps c:

Graph the line given by 2x+y=1 and the circle given by x²+y²=10.Find all solutions to the system of equations. Verify your resul

Answer:

(1.8, -2.6) and (-1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x+y=1$

$x^2+y^2=10$

From the first equation

$y=1-2x$

Applying to the second equation

$x^2+(1-2x)^2=10\\\Rightarrow x^2+1+4x^2-4x=10\\\Rightarrow 5x^2-4x-8=0$

Solving the equation we get

$x=\frac{-\left(-4\right)+\sqrt{\left(-4\right)^2-4\cdot \:5\left(-9\right)}}{2\cdot \:5}, \frac{-\left(-4\right)-\sqrt{\left(-4\right)^2-4\cdot \:5\left(-9\right)}}{2\cdot \:5}\\\Rightarrow x=1.8, -1$
