-4x = y + 3

y = -4x - 3​ => 4x = -y - 3

-4x = y + 3

4x = -y - 3

Answer:

x = x, y = -3 - 4x

Explanation:

Subtract y from both sides of the equation.

-4x - y = 3

y = -4x - 3

Add 4x to both sides of the equation.

-4x - y = 3

y + 4x = -3

-4x - y = 3

Reorder the polynomial.

Add the two equations together to eliminate y from the system.

-4x - y = 3

+ 4x + y = -3

0 = 0

Since 0 = 0, the equations intersect at an infinite number of points.

Infinite number of solutions.

Solve one of the equations for y.

y = -3 - 4x

The solution is the set of ordered pairs that make y = -3 - 4x true.

Point form: (x, -3 -4x)

Equation Form: x = x, y = -3 - 4x

good luck, i hope this helps :)
