Answer:
one solution (2.333, 9.6666)
Explanation:
The ys have to be equal for there to be 1 solution. Let's see if they are. Equate the ys. - -2x becomes 2x
5x +-2 = 2x + 5 Write the left with 1 sign
5x - 2 = 2x + 5 Subtract 2x from both sides
2x 2x
3x - 2 = 5 Add 2 to both sides
2 2
3x = 7 Divide by 3
x = 7/3
x = 2 1/3
y = 5x - 2
y = 5(2 1/3) - 2
y = 11 2/3 - 2
y = 9 2/3
