1 answer

To solve the system of equations you've provided, we first need to analyze the equations.

  1. The first equation is: \[ y = -1 \]

  2. The second equation is: \[ x = -2y + 4 \]

Now we can substitute the value of \( y \) from the first equation into the second equation:

Substituting \( y = -1 \) into the second equation: \[ x = -2(-1) + 4 \]

Now, simplify the right side: \[ x = 2 + 4 \] \[ x = 6 \]

So we find: \[ x = 6 \quad \text{and} \quad y = -1 \]

The solution to the system of equations is: \[ x = 6, \quad y = -1 \]

You can now enter \( x = 6 \) and \( y = -1 \) on Zearn.
