Answer:
All you need to do is make sure the first expression is solved for y (which it is), and then substitute it into the second expression in place of any occurrences of y:
given the second expression:
x - y = 1
We'll replace y with it's value in the first expression:
x - (y) = 1
x - (5 - 2x) = 1
Now we can expand the resulting equation:
x - 5 + 2x = 1
So <em>neither</em> of the answers provided are correct.
You can then solve for x:
x - 5 + 2x = 1
x - 5 + 5 + 2x = 1 + 5
x + 2x = 6
3x = 6
3x/3 = 6/3
x = 2
After that, you can find y by plugging x into either of the two original equations:
y = 5 - 2x
y = 5 - 2(2)
y = 5 - 4
y = 1
Answer:
9/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = (1/4)x + 3 is the linear function.
When x = 0, the initial value is 3.
When x increases by 1, 1/4 is added to the previous value.
(3, - 2)
given y = - 2, then
- 2x + 4 = - 2 ( solve for x )
subtract 4 from both sides
- 2x = - 6 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = 
= 3
