Solve: y = x + 2
y + 1 = - 4x
On paper

(x ,y)= (1/3, -4/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify

y = -4x

x + 2y + 1 = -4x

multiply both sides

4x + y = 0

5 x + 2y = -1

eliminate one variable

-8x - 2y = 0

5x + 2y = -1

divide

-3x = -1

x = 1/3

possible solution

y= -4/3

check the solution

(x, y) = (1/3, -4/3)

simplify

-4/3 = 1/3 + 2 x (-4/3) + 1 = -4 x 1/3

place in order

-4/3 = -4/3 = -4/3

it would open into a square depending on the type of envelope i’m not sure about the second part
