Substituting the equation y = 4x + 1 into the equation 2y = -x – 1 will produce the equation ________.

a.)
7x = -3

b.)
7x = 1

c.)
9x = -3

d.)
9x = 1


Sagot :

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is substitution method in solving simulteanous equations.

given y = 4x + 1

we will substitute y into 2y = -x-1

[tex]2(4x + 1) = - x - 1 \\ 8x + 2 = - x - 1 \\ 8x + x + 2 = - 1 \\ 9x + 2 = - 1 \\ 9x = - 1 - 2 \\ 9x = - 3[/tex]

Therefore the answer is C.
