Y=2x-1
y=-3x+14
First you would substitue one of the y's for the other so
2x-1=-3x+14
no you would solve for x...
add one on both sides
2x=-3x+15
now add 3x to both sides which becomes
5x=15
divide 5 on both sides which gives you x=3
now to solve for y plug into any one of the equations(doesn't matter which one) from before 3 for x and solve
y=2(3)-1
y=6-1
y=5
And that is you answer y=5
There are many expressions equivalent, it just needs the answer to also equal 2.
2×1
3-1
4÷2
