Answer fast pleaseee, Solve the following system of equations: y= -5x +1 and y= -x-3

(1, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 5x + 1 → (1)

y = - x - 3 → (2)

Since both are expressed in terms of y, equate the right sides, that is

- x - 3 = - 5x + 1 ( add 5x to both sides )

4x - 3 = 1 ( add 3 to both sides )

4x = 4 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (2)

y = - 1 - 3 = - 4

Solution is (1, - 4 )

expression #3 is not equivalent. the others are.
