2. We have \(y=2+\frac{1}{4}x\)
and \(3x-5y=-3\)
Plug in the value of \(y\) for \(x\), so \(3x-5(2+\frac{1}{4}x)=-3\) . Simplifying, we get \(3x-10-\frac{5}{4}x=-3\)\(\) , so \(\frac{7}{4}x=7, x=4\) and the value of \(y\) equals . \(2+1=3\) . Thus, \(\boxed{(x,y)=(4,3)}.\)
3. I can't really see the LATEX, but \(\frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+4\right)}{2x-1}=\boxed{\frac{x^2+3x-4}{2x-1}}.\)
