Question

What is the solution to the system of equations?
y = 2x + 3
y = -x +8

Answer 1

Answer:

x= 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You would set the equations equal to each other, so 2x + 3 = -x + 8. Then, you would add the x to the 2x making it 3x. That makes your equation 3x + 3 = 8. Then you subtract the 3 making the equation 3x = 5 and then you would divide the 3 making your answer 5/3.
