Y = 4x and y + x = 5

A. (-4,1)
B. (1,4)
C. (-3,2)
D. (2,3)

1 answer

Using the given equations:

y + x = 5

y = 5 - x

Substituting the value of y in the first equation:

Y = 4x

5 - x = 4x

5 = 5x

x = 1

Substituting the value of x in y = 5 - x:

y = 5 - 1 = 4

Therefore, the solution is (1,4), which is option B.
