Since the two equations equal y, set them equal to each other.
x-1=-2x+5
From there, solve for x.
First get x on one side, by using the addition property of equality.
x-1=-2x+5
3x-1=5
Isolate x by adding 1.
3x=6
Lastly get x all by itself by dividing each side by 3.
x=2
You can now substitute your x-value, 2, into one of the equations (or both, if you wish; either one will result in the same answer.)
y=x-1
y=2-1
y=1
OR
y=-2x+5
y=-2(2)+5
y=-4+5
y=1
Final answer:
x=2 and y=1

A) 60 Clown fish / 5 = 12
12 x 4 = 28 Angel fish
B) 28 Angel fish / 4 = 12
12 x 3 = 36 Gold fish
C) Add all fish 28 Angel fish + 36 Gold fish + 60 Clown fish = 124 Fish in total
Answer:
a = 1, b = 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
a + b = 4
a - b = -2 Adding to eliminate b:
2a = 2
a = 1
So 1 + b = 4
giving b = 3.
Answer:
1. 1458
2. 500 or -500
Step-by-step explanation:
1. a4=54, a5=162
r = 162/54 = 3
a7 = a5 × r²
= 162 × 3² = 1458
2.a4=-4, a6=-100
r² = -100/-4 = 25
r = +/- 5
a7 = a6 × r
= -100 × +/- 5
= +/- 500
