Hello!
We can solve this by using substitution
we can plug y = x - 1 into the other equation
So 2x - 3( x - 1) = -1
We can distribute the -3 to (x - 1)
2x - 3x + 3 = -1
Combine like terms
-x + 3 = -1
Subtract 3 from both sides
-x = -4
Since x is negative we can multiply both sides by -1
x = 4
We can plug x into the first equation
y = (4) - 1
y = 3
The answers are x = 4 and y = 3
Hope this helps!
