get y by itself, and substitute into the other equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you understand what im talking about?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
mm a little. so add y?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
add y and add 7 to both sides of the first equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it has no solution?

how did you get that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its multiple choice
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you end up with y=-5x+7 correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Infinitely many solutions
No solution
(7/5, 14)
(0, 7)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lets work out the problem
so take that and substitute it into the second equation to get 2(-5x+7) − 2x = 14

distribute to get -10x+14-2x=14
-12x=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so your x value is 0 now plug 0 into x for the first equation to find y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so y=-5(0)+7
y coordinate is 7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
giving you (0,7)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhh

Solve using substitution:
-2x − y + 1 = 0
2x = -13 − 3y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so lets get y by itself again
OpenStudy (anonymous):
add
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i got 4,-7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2(x)=-13-3(-2x+1)
2x=-13+6x-3
4x=16
x=4

y=-2(4)+1
y=-8+1
y=-7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(4,-7)
