Answer:

Y=4

Explanation:

How I did this.

y=x+2 y=3x-2

Moved around (you can do this)

y=2+2 y= 3x-x

y=4 y=2x

y=4.

Not sure if this is right. please check other answers

Answer:

(2, 4)

x = 2

y = 4.

Explanation:

To find the solution to the system of equations, we can simply set the two equations equal to each other as shown:

x + 2 = 3x - 2

Subtract 'x' from both sides:

2 = 2x - 2

Add '2' to both sides:

4 = 2x

x = 2.

Plug this value for 'x' into an equation to solve for 'y':

y = (2) + 2

y = 4.

Therefore, the solution to the system is (2, 4).
