How can x + 2 = −3x + 11 be set up as a system of equations?

y = x + 13
y = −3x + 11


y = x + 2
y = −3x + 11


y = x + 2
y = −2x + 11


y = 2
y = −3x + 11

Anything of the form A = B can be broken into y = A and y = B as one system of equations.

So x+2 = -3x+11 breaks down into the system shown below

y = x+2
y = -3x+11

Answer: Choice B
