Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Since y = -1, we will substitute the y variable in the equation for -1.
-1 = -5/2x + 4
- Take away 4 from both sides in order to find out what x equals so we can substitute it.
5 = -5/2x
- turn it into a positive by multiplying each side by -1.
-1(-5 = -5/2x) =
5 = 5/2x
- Divide each side by 5.
1 = 1/2x
- Multiple both sides by 2.
2 = x
- Substitute the variables.
x = 2
y = -1
-1 = -5/2(2) + 4
