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

Answer:
2^4 or 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a^b / a^c = a^(b-c)
2^9 / 2^5
2^(9-5)
2^4 or 16
Answer:
0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
(5 divided by 8) - ((1 divided by 4) x 2) = 0.125
