Question

Y = -2x - 6
y = 2x+10

Answer 1

Simplifying

y = -2x + -6

Reorder the terms:

y = -6 + -2x

Solving

y = -6 + -2x

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying

y = -6 + -2x

-----------------------------

Simplifying

y = 2x + 10

Reorder the terms:

y = 10 + 2x

Solving

y = 10 + 2x

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying

y = 10 + 2x

Answer 2

I WILL USE SUBSTITUTION TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BY EQUATING -2X-6 TO 2X+10 SINCE THEY ARE BOTH EQUAL TO Y

WILL USE SUBSTITUTION TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BY EQUATING -2X-6 TO 2X+10 SINCE THEY ARE BOTH EQUAL TO Y
`- 2x - 6 = 2x + 10 \\ - 2x - 2x = 10 + 6 \\ - 4x = 16 \\ ( - 4x)/( - 4) = (16)/( - 4) \\ x = - 4`

USE ANY OF THE EQUATIONS TO FIND THE VALUE OF Y YOU WILL GET THE SAME ANSWER

`y = -2 ( - 4) - 6 \\ y = 8 - 6 \\ y = 2`
