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.

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = −2x + 8

y = x − 1

Substitute the second equation into the first equation  for y

y = -2x+8

x-1 = -2x+8

Add 2x to each side

x-1+2x = -2x+8+2x

3x -1 = 8

Add 1 to each side

3x-1+1 = 8+1

3x =9

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 9/3

x=3

Now find y

y = x-1

y =3-1

y=2

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380

hope it *im kind of slow so idk if my answer is right*
