which description best describes the solution to the following system of equations y= -2x +3 y= -x + 1
marin [14]
For this case we have the following system of equations:
 y = -2x +3&#10;&#10;y = -x + 1
 Equating the values of y we have:
 -2x +3 = -x + 1&#10;
 From here, we can clear the value of x.
 We have then:
 -2x + x = 1 - 3&#10;&#10;-x = -2&#10;&#10;x = 2
 Then, we look for the value of y.
 For this, we substitute x in any of the equations:
 y = -x + 1&#10;&#10;y = -2 + 1&#10;&#10;y = -1
 Answer:
 
The ordered pair solution of the system of equations, is given by:
 
(x, y) = (2, -1)
