Answer:
x=1 and y=−5
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem:
Solve y=−5x;y=x−6
Steps:
I will solve your system by substitution.
y=−5x;y=x−6
Step: Solve y=−5x for y:
Step: Substitute −5x for y in y=x−6:
y=x−6
−5x=x−6
−5x+−x=x−6+−x (Add -x to both sides)
−6x=−6
−6x/−6=−6/−6 (Divide both sides by -6)
x = 1
Step: Substitute 1 for x in y=−5x:
y=−5x
y=(−5)(1)
y=−5(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=1 and y=−5
Thank you,
