Answer 1

The system of equations graphed below is:

y = -2x - 1
y = -x - 5

To solve this system of equations, we can set the two equations equal to each other:

-2x - 1 = -x - 5

Solving for x:

-x - 1 = -5
-x = -4
x = 4

Now that we have x = 4, we can substitute it back into one of the equations to find y. Let's use y = -2x - 1:

y = -2(4) - 1
y = -8 - 1
y = -9

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is (4, -9).
