Answer:
(- 2, - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 2x + 3 → (1)
y = 3x + 5 → (2)
Substitute y = 3x + 5 into (1)
3x + 5 = 2x + 3 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x + 5 = 3 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
x = - 2
Substitute x = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y
Substituting into (1)
y = 2(- 2) + 3 = - 4 + 3 = - 1
solution is (- 2, - 1 )
