Input (x-value)
Output (y-value)
You need to find the x-value that produces a y-value of -1. Since you know:
y = -1 Use the rule, and substitute/plug this into the equation
y = -2x + 33 Plug in -1 for "y" in the equation since y = -1
-1 = -2x + 33 Subtract 33 on both sides
-1 - 33 = -2x + 33 - 33
-34 = -2x Divide -2 on both sides to get "x" by itself
17 = x
An input of 17 yields an output of -1
Answer:
x = 1, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 6x
2x + 3y = 20
Plug y as 6x in the second equation and solve for x.
2x + 3(6x) = 20
2x + 18x = 20
20x = 20
x = 1
Plug x as 1 in the first equation and solve for y.
y = 6(1)
y = 6
