Question

What is the solution to this sytem of equations:

y − 2x = −1
x + 3y = 4

Answer 1

Do you have any clue where to start?

Answer 2

I changed it to slope intercept but the y intercept came out to 4 over 3?

Answer 3

I would simply use substitution to solve this:

Looking at the first equation:
y-2x=-1

Which can be easily rearranged in terms of y:
y=2x-1

Plug this equation into the second original equation to get:
x + 3(2x-1) = 4

Solving for x you will get 1. Now just plug that into one of the original equations and solve for y:
y − 2(1) = −1
y = 1.
