Solve this system of equation by substitution
y = x+2
x + 2y = 1

( -1, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the first equation into the second and solve for x:

x + 2(x + 2) = 1

x + 2x + 4 = 1

3x + 4 = 1

3x = -3

x = -1

Then put that answer into the first equation to solve for y:

y = (-1) + 2

y = 1

You can check by putting those answers into the equations:

1 = -1 + 2

1 = 1

-1 + 2(1) = 1

-1 + 2 = 1

1 = 1

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
