Solve the following system of equations:
y = 2x +1
y=-x+ 4

x=?
y=?

x = 1, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 2x + 1 → (1)

y = - x + 4 → (2)

Substitute y = 2x + 1 into (2)

2x + 1 = - x + 4 ( add x to both sides )

3x + 1 = 4 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

3x = 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into (1) and evaluate for y

y = 2(1) + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3

Then solution is x = 1, y = 3

step-by-step explanation:

the true statements are:

r = set of real numbers

n = set of natural numbers, 1,2,

w = n u{0} = {0,1,}
