Answer: the answer will be (2,4)

Explanation:

Step 1: Solve y=3x−2 for y:

y=3x-2

Step 2: Substitute 3x−2 for y in y−2=x:

y−2=x

3x−2−2=x

3x−4=x (Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x−4+−x=x+−x (Add -x to both sides)

2x−4=0

2x−4+4=0+4 (Add 4 to both sides)

2x=4


(2x)/(2) =(4)/(2) (divide both sides by 2)

x=2

Step 3: Substitute 2 for x in y=3x−2:

y=3x-2

y=(3)(2)-2

y=4 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=2 , y=4
