2. Solve 2x + y = 11 and x - y = 1
3. If y=2x+1 and y=x+5, find intersection
4. Can x+y=3 and x+y=7 have a solution?
5. Tickets: adult $8, student $5. Total 7 tickets, $47 total. How many adults?

Answer key preview

1. x=5, y=4

Add equations then back-substitute.

2. x=4, y=3

Add equations to get 3x=12.

3. (4,9)

Set equal: 2x+1=x+5 so x=4 and y=9.
