Please help!!!! Keep getting answer wrong

Answer 1

Your solution is (1, -4)

Explanation:

The equations both equal y, so you can set them equal to each other.

y = -4x

y = -3x - 1

-4x = -3x - 1

add 3x to both sides

-x = -1

divide both sides by -1 for x to be positive

x = 1

plug x back in

y = -4(1)

y = -4

y = -3(1) - 1

y = -3 - 1

y = -4

Your solution is (1, -4)
