Question

For the equation 2x+ y=1 , the value of y co-ordinate is -5 , then find the  value of x co-ordinate?

pls step by step​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+y=1-------(i)

Value of y coordinate= -5

Put value of y in (i)

Thus, 2x+(-5)=1

Thus, 2x-5=1

          2x=6

Thus, x=3

Answer 2

Answer:

given,

y=-5

substitute in the equation 2x+y=1

We get

2x+(-5)=1

2x-5 =1

2x =1+5

2x =6

x =6/2

x=3

hence x value is 3
