Question

What is the solution to the system of equations?

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

Answer 1

Explanation:

start by setting each equation to each other

`2x + 4 = - x + 1`

first we are going to subtract 2x from both side of the equation

`4 = - 3x + 1`

now subtract 1 from both sides

`3 = - 3x`

now divide by -3 on both sides
