Answer:
Either x = 3, y = 2
or
(3,2) is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x +y = 8 (1)
y = - x+ 5 (2)
Put equation (2) into equation (1). Use the y value in (2) to go into the y value in (1).
2x - x+5 = 8 Combine the x values
x + 5 = 8 Subtract 5 from both sides
x + 5-5 = 8-5
x=3
Now go back to (2). Put x in for the value of -x. Watch the sign.
y = -3+ 5
y = 2
So the answer is (3,2)

Answer:
y -1 = -1(x -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line through the two points can be found from the slope formula:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (5 -1)/(-2 -2) = 4/-4 = -1
The point-slope equation for a line through point (h, k) with slope m is ...
y -k = m(x -h)
You have (h, k) = (2, 1) and m = -1. Putting these values into the form gives ...
y -1 = -1(x -2)

<em>Additional comment</em>
Your problem statement already has two of the three values filled in, so you only need to enter the x-coordinate of the first point: 2.
