Question

consider the following set of equations: equation a: y = 2x 4 equation b: y = 3x 1 which of the following is a step that can be used to find the solution to the set of equations? 2x 4 = 3x 1 2x = 3x 4 2x 4 = 3x 2x 1 = 3x 4

Answer 1

y = 2x + 4 and y = 3x + 1
Therefore, 2x + 4 = 3x + 1

Answer 2

`2x+4=3x+1`.

Explanation:

Consider the given set of equations

`y=2x+4`

`y=3x+1`

We need to find the step that can be used to find the solution to the set of equations.

We can find the solution of given system of equations by equating both equations.

`2x+4=3x+1`

Isolate variable terms.

`4-1=3x-2x`

`3=x`

Therefore, the required equation is
`2x+4=3x+1`.
