What is the solution of the system equations y =-3x +8 y = -5x -2
Talja [164]

Answer:

Since both equations are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other.

y =-3x +8

y = -5x -2

-3x +8 = -5x -2

Solve for x.To do this, we need to get x by itself. First, move all the numbers to one side of the equation, and all the variables to the other.

-3x +8 = -5x -2

Add 5x to both sides

-3x+5x +8=-5x+5x -2

2x+8=-2

Subtract 8 from both sides

2x+8-8 = -2-8

2x=-10

Now, all the numbers are on one side, with the variables on the other. x is not by itself, it is being multiplied by 2. To undo this, divide both sides by 2

2x/2= -10/2

x= -5

Now, to find y, substitute -5 in for x in one of the equations.

y = -5x -2

y= -5(-5) -2

y=25-2

y=23

Put the solution into (x,y)

<u><em>The solution is (-5, 23)</em></u>
