If y = x + 2 and y = -2x + 8, what do you know about x + 2 and -2x + 8?​

we have

y=x+2

y=-2x+8

Solve the system of equations

equate both equations

x+2=-2x+8

x+2x=8-2

3x=6

x=2

Find the value of y

y=(2)+2

y=4

the solution is (2,4)

that means

(2,4) is a common point , that satisfy both equations
