y = - 2x + 2

Group of answer choices

x = 2

x = 4

x = -5

x = -1

Answer 1

2 the answer is 2!!!! To find the answer solve the system of equations

Answer 2

Explanation:

Substitute the second equation into the first equation to eliminate y:

y - x = -4

-2x + 2 - x = -4 (Substitute y = -2x + 2)

-3x + 2 = -4

-3x = -6

x = 2

Therefore, the solution is x = 2.
