Answer:
x=-1/3 and y=-5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve 2x−1=y for y:
2x−1=y
2x−1+−y=y+−y(Add -y to both sides)
2x−y−1=0
2x−y−1+−2x=0+−2x(Add -2x to both sides)
−y−1=−2x
−y−1+1=−2x+1(Add 1 to both sides)
−y=−2x+1
-y/-1 =-2x+1/-1 (Divide both sides by -1)
y=2x−1
Substitute 2x−1 for y in 2y+3=x:
2y+3=x
2(2x−1)+3=x
4x+1=x(Simplify both sides of the equation)
4x+1+−x=x+−x(Add -x to both sides)
3x+1=0
3x+1+−1=0+−1(Add -1 to both sides)
3x=−1
3x/3=-1/3
x=-1/3
Substitute -1/3 for x in y=2x−1:
y=2x−1
y=2(-1/3)-1
y=-5/3 (Simplify both sides of the equation)
