Consider the following pair of equations: y = −2x + 8
y = x − 1

Explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution. Show all the steps and write the solution in (x, y) form.

y = -2x + 8

x = 3

y = x - 1

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

if 2x + y = 8 and x - y = 1

you can solve using substitution, elimination, matrix etc.

You will find that x = 3 and y = 2

Hope this helped.
