Question

PLEASE HELP!!!

Find the solution to the system of equations.
You can use the interactive graph below to find the solution.
y = -7x +3
Y = -2 - 3
x=___
y=___

Answer 1

I think you mispelled something there... if the system of equation involves 2x-3, the answer is x = 6/5 and y = -27/5

Explanation:

- 7x+3 = -2x-3

1. move -3 to the other side (so add it on both sides)

• 7x+3+3 = -2x
• 7x+6 = -2x

2. move 7x to the other side (in order to combine like terms)

• 6 = 7x -2x
• 6= 5x

3. Solve for x (Divide 5 by both systems)

• 6/5 = x

4. Plug x into one of the equations to find y

• 2 * (6/5) -3 = -27/5
• y = -27/5
