The answer is 45
Explanation: if X=5 then we plug in x so now we get the equation 9 times 5 so the answer is 45 to check this we can divide 45 by 5 or 9 and we will see that the answer is correct have a nice day (: and a fortitude of a week
y = -2x - 9 ----------- 1
y = 3x + 1 -------------- 2
Step 1
Substitute y from equation 1 to equation 2.
y = -2x - 9
3x + 1 = -2x - 9
Step 2
Collect like terms
3x + 2x = - 9 - 1
5x = -10
Step 3
Divide through by 5
x = -10/5
x = -2
Step 4
Substitute x in equation 2 to find y.
y = 3x + 1
y = 3(-2) + 1
y = -6 + 1
y = -5
So the solution is (-2, -5)
