Question 59266This question is from textbook algebra 1
: i dont understand how to do this problem:
y=3x-7
y=-x+1 This question is from textbook algebra 1
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y=3x-7
y=-x+1
We're looking for when their x=x and y=y, so set the problems equal to each other.
3x-7=-x+1
3x+x-7=x-x+1
4x-7=1
4x-7+7=1+7
4x=8
4x/4=8/4
x=2
Let x=2 and solve for y in one of the equations.
y=-(2)+1
y=-1
The solution is:(2,-1)
Graphically, it's their point of intersection:
