Question

Please solve this equation ASAP. y=x+2 y=2x-1

Answer 1

x= 3 and y=5

Point (3,5)

Explanation:

We have 2 equations:

1. y=x+2

2. y=2x-1

If we equate both equations because they are both equations of 'y'.

y = y

x+2 = 2x-1

We isolate x

2+1= 2x-x

3=x

If we substitute in any equation:

1. y=x+2

y= 3+2

y=5

We have x= 3 and y=5

Obtaining as a solution, the point (3,5)
