I need help understanding this hopefully you guys can help me with this! :D

1)Find the solution of the following system of equations; express the answer as a coordinate pair (x,y):

y = x + 3

y = -2x - 3


2)Find the solution of the following system of equations; express the

answer as a coordinate pair (x,y):

y = 2x + 1

y = x/2 + 4


3) Find the solution of the following system of equations; express the

answer as a coordinate pair (x,y):

y = -3x + 6

y= -1/2x+1

Answer:

(-2, 1)

(2, 5)

Please solve the third question and answer in the comments and I will tell you if you are correct.

Explanation:

1)Find the solution of the following system of equations; express the answer as a coordinate pair (x,y):

y = x + 3 subtract from the bottom and solve for x

y = -2x - 3

y - y = x - (-2x) + 3 - (-3)

0 = 3x + 6

-6 = 3x

-2 = x

y = x + 3 y = -2 + 3 y = 1 (-2, 1)

2)Find the solution of the following system of equations; express the

answer as a coordinate pair (x,y):

y = 2x + 1 subtract from the bottom and solve for x

y = x/2 + 4

y-y = 2x - 1/2 x +1 - 4

0 = x(2-1/2) - 3

3 = 1.5x

2 = x y = 2x + 1 y = 2(2) + 1 y = 5 (2, 5)

3) Find the solution of the following system of equations; express the

answer as a coordinate pair (x,y):

y = -3x + 6 subtract from the bottom and solve for x

y= -1/2x+1

y-y = x(-3 - (-1/2)) + (6 - 1) follow the examples above
