Equation 1: y = -2x + 1
Equation 2: y = 2x - 3
Since both equations already have y isolated, we are able to simply set the right side of both equations equal to each other. Since we know that the value of y must be the same, we can do this.
-2x + 1 = 2x - 3
1 = 4x - 3
4 = 4x
x = 1
Then, we need to plug our value of x back into either of the original two equations and solve for y. I will be plugging x back into equation 2 above.
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(1) - 3
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
Hope this helps!! :)
They have enough balloons because I used division as my operation. 3 can go into 16 five times. I got 1 after subtracting and bring down 2. 3 can go into 12 evenly 4 times. 12 minus 12 equals 0 with no remainder. So, they get 54 balloons for each group. But I want to know how many EACH student gets enough balloons. 54 divided by 6 groups equals 9 balloons for each student.
