document.write( "Question 1030464: solve by substitution y=2x+1 the second part is 3x+y=11, I know that the formula for x is 3x+(2x+1)=11, that then becomes 5x+1=11 subtract 1 from both sides and you get 5x=10 which comes out to x=2 so the x coordinate is 2 i don't know how to find the y coordinate \n" ); document.write( "
Algebra.Com's Answer #645325 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! x=2 \n" ); document.write( "Now put back into either part \n" ); document.write( "y=2x+1 \n" ); document.write( "y=2(2)+1=5 \n" ); document.write( "check with the other equation (2,5): 3(2)+5=11 \n" ); document.write( "(2,5) is the answer. \n" ); document.write( " |
