Answer:

(-4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a simultaneous equation;

solving by substitution method, we have;

since y= ¼x + 3 and the same y= 2x + 10

therefore we combine both equations;

¼x + 3= 2x+10

3-10=2x-¼x

to clear out fraction, multiply throughout by 4

-28= 8x-x

-28= 7x

x= -28/7

x= -4

since x is -4, therefore All we have to do is to substitute x into y, doing this, we have;

y=2x+10

y= 2(-4) + 10

y= -8 + 10

y= 2

therefore y= 2 and x= -4

so the values are (-4, 2)

if you still don't understand, check your NGM SS2 textbook or make a comment and I will explain better

Answer:
I believe it should be (-4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:
You can use substitution to solve this, so

1/4x+3 = 2x+10

(Because they both = y)

Then solve for x
X=-4

Then you plug x into one of the equations to solve for y. I used y=1/4(-4)+3

Hope this helps
