Consider the equation x-y=-1 ..calculate the value of y if x =1

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation x - y = -1, if x = 1,

then we would plug that in to solve for the y value

1 - y = -1

Subtract 1 from both sides to find y

-y = - 2

Divide by -1 to find y

y = 2.

To double check our answer we would plug in our x-value and y-value into the equation

1 - 2 = -1

This is true, so our answer is y = 2
