Question

What is the solution to the system of equations? {x=5 y=2x−1

Answer 1

x=5
y=2x-1
x = 5 is what we know for now
So we solve for Y
-------------------
Substitute 5 for x in the equation y=2x-1
y = (2)(5) - 1
-------------------------------
SImplify y = (2)(5) - 1
y = 9
------------------------------------------
X = 5 and Y = 9

Answer 2

The solution of the system of equations is
`x=5, y=9`

Explanation:

we have

`x=5` -----> equation A

`y=2x-1` -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

`y=2(5)-1=9`

The solution is the point
`(5,9)`

`x=5, y=9`
