(6, 13)
Graph of y = 2x + 1

Use the left and right arrow keys to trace the curve, up and down to jump between key points, and plus and minus to zoom.

Key points of y = 2x + 1
Pointxy
x-intercept−0.50
y-intercept01

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Substitute the expression for yy from the first equation into the second equation.

    Given:

    1. y=2x+1y = 2x + 1
    2. 3x−y=53x - y = 5

    Substitute (1) into (2):

    3x−(2x+1)=53x - (2x + 1) = 5
  2. Solve for xx.

    3x−2x−1=53x - 2x - 1 = 5 x−1=5x - 1 = 5 x=5+1x = 5 + 1 x=6x = 6
  3. Substitute the value of xx back into the first equation to find yy.

    y=2(6)+1y = 2(6) + 1 y=12+1y = 12 + 1 y=13y = 13

    The intersection point is (6,13)(6, 13).
