Question

Y=4x−2 (What does Y and X equal?
y=x+3
​

Answer 1

x=5/3; y=14/3

Explanation:

Subtract the following:

-4x+y=-2

-x+y=3

= -3x=-5

x=5/3

substitute x into one of the given equations.

y=5/3+3

y= 14/3

Answer 2

x = 5/3

y = 14/3

Explanation:

y=4x−2

y=x+3

​Since they are both equal to y, we can set them equal to each other

4x-2 = x+3

Subtract x from each side

4x-2-x = x+3-x

3x-2 =3

Add 2 to each side

3x-2+2 = 3+2

3x =5

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 =5/3

x = 5/3

Now we need to find y

y = x+3

y =5/3+3

y = 5/3+9/3

y = 14/3
