The 5 represents the starting distance from home. In other words, when t = 0, the value of y is y = 5. Replacing t with 0 leads to this y value. This is the y intercept. So at time 0 minutes, the ant is 5 units from home. Replace "units" with whatever units you happen to be using.

Answer:
(5, -3)
y= -3
x= 5
Step-by-step explanation:
-x-2y=1
x+y=2
solve the equation
-x-2y=1
x=2-y
substitute the value of x into an equation
-(2-y)-2y=1
remove parenthesis
-2-y-2y=1
subtract y to 2y
-2-y=1
add 2 from both sides
-y=3
divide both sides by -y
y= -3
substitute the value of y into an equation
x=2-(-3)
remove parenthesis
x=2+3
add 2 to 3
x=5
