Use substitution to find the solution to the system of equations. 5x+7y=-29 y=x+1

(x, y) = (- 3, - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

5x + 7y = - 29 → (1)

y = x + 1 → (2)

substitute y = x + 1 into (1)

5x + 7(x + 1) = - 29 ( distribute and simplify left side )

5x + 7x + 7 = - 29

12x + 7 = - 29 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

12x = - 36 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = - 3

substitute x = - 3 into (2)

y = - 3 + 1 = - 2

solution is (- 3, - 2 )

correct answer:

i^31 = -i
