Question 1 (3 points)

Solve the following linear system:
y = -2x - 5
y = 2/3x + 3
as an ordered pair (x,y)

Answer 1

Explanation:

hello : y = -2x - 5

y = 2/3x + 3

means : -2x-5 = 2/3 x+3

-6x-15 = 2x +9

-8x=24 so : x = -3

put the value for : x in the first equation :y = -2(-3)-5 =1

the ordered pair (-3;1) is solution
