Question

A system of equations is shown below:

Answer 1

Answer:

(8, 17)

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 3x -7 -----(1)

y= 2x +1 -----(2)

Substitute (1) into (2):

3x -7= 2x +1

Being x terms to one side, constant to the other:

3x -2x= 7 +1

x= 8

Substitute x= 8 into (2):

y= 2(8) +1

y= 16 +1

y= 17

∴ The solution is (8, 17).
