Question

Graph the system of equations on your graph paper to answer the question. {y=−x+3 y=x+5 What is the solution for this system of equations? Enter your answer in the boxes.

Answer 1

(x,y) = (-1,4)

Explanation:

y = y right? So all you have to do is replace both of the equations.

`-x+3=x+5\\-x-x=5-3\\-2x=2\\x=-1`

after you've found the value of x just substitute it into ANY of these two equations!

For example if we get the first one we have

`y=-(-1)+3\\y=1+3\\y=4`

And there you have it. Hope it helps!
