Question

Use graphing method y=3x-2 and y=-x

Answer 1

x = 0.5 and y = -0.5

Explanation:

The given equations are :

y=3x-2 .....(1)

and

y=-x .....(2)

Use (2) in (1). So,

-x=3x-2

Taking like terms together,

2 = 3x+x

2 = 4x

x = 1/2 = 0.5

So,

y = -1/2 = -0.5

The graph is shown in the attached figure.
