**I realized that both links are the same, just punch in the proper numbers to solve**

Go To: http://www.algebra.com/tutors/describe_linear_equation.solver?solver_action=plug for a better understanding & for the answer for x-2y=-1. **Remember that x-2y=-1 also equals x+-2y=-1 so don't get that mixed up because they are the same thing but just written in a different way.
