PLEASE HELP

Answer 1

For this case we have that by definition, a function is of the form:

$y = f (x)$

So, we have the following system of equations:

$y = -6x + 2\\y = -2x + 4$

Equating the equations we have:

$-6x + 2 = -2x + 4$

Adding 2x to both sides of the equation:

$-6x + 2x + 2 = 4\\-4x + 2 = 4$

Subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:

$-4x = 4-2\\-4x = 2$

Dividing between -4 on both sides of the equation:

$x = \frac {2} {- 4}\\x = - \frac {1} {2}$

Thus, the value of the variable "x" is -0.5.

Answer:

-0.5
