1. plug in the values

3(2) - (-1) = 7; true

2(2) + 3(-1) = 1

4 -3 = 1; true

yes, the point is true for the system. .

2.

the solution is referring to where both the lines intercept on the graph.

3. replace 'y' in the first equation with the second equation

3x + 6x + 1 = 10

9x + 1 = 10

9x = 9

x = 1

plug x = 1

y = 6(1) + 1

y = 7

(1,7)

4. elimiate the common terms which is 'n' which gives;

5m = -5

m = -1

plug in to find 'y' AKA 'n'

3(-1) - n = 2

-3 - n = 2

-n = 5

n = -5

I can futher explain if you'd like, let me know.

Answer: x = 2
To solve, make the 2 equations equal to each other by replacing y with the other equation.
x/2 + 2 = x + 1

Next, I multiplied everything by 2 to get rid of fractions
x + 4 = 2x + 2

Then solve
2 = x
