SOLUTION: y=3x-1 y=-2x+4

Question 281437: y=3x-1 y=-2x+4

Since both equations already equal y, just set them equal to each other, then solve for x:
3x-1=-2x+4
5x=5
x=1
Substitute into either statement, to solve for y:
y=3(1)-1
y=2
Prove this is correct:
2=3*1-1; 2=2 correct.
2=-2*1+4; 2=2 correct.
