Since y=x-4 you would simply just plug that into 'y' on the other equation, given: x-4=3x+2.
Subtract x from both sides, it will leave you with -4=2x+2.
Next you would subtract 2 from both sides, leaving you with -6=2x.
All you need now is to get rid of the coefficient in front of 'x' so you divide both sides with 2, leaving you with your answer: -3=x.

Answer: -3=x

Hope this helps!

Hi there! The answer is x = -3

y = 3x + 2
y = x - 4

Since y equals 3x + 2 AND y equals x - 4, we can say that 3x + 2 equals x - 4. So, we get
3x + 2 = x - 4

Collect the terms (subtract x from both sides and subtract 2 from both sides)
2x = - 6

Divide by 2
x = \frac{ - 6}{2} = - 3

Therefore x = -3

A standard deck of playing cards has 52 cards: 13 spades, 13 clubs, 13 hearts, and 13 diamonds. What is the probability of drawi
cestrela7 [59]

13/ 52 = 1/4 chances.

There are 13 spades and 52 cards. You divide the spades and cards in the deck to find your chances of drawing one.

You have a 25% chance of getting a spade.

Now you put it back. Since you put it back, you still have the same number of cards and the same number of spades. So when you divide 13/52 again, the numbers are still the same. 1/4. 25% chance.

So, you still have a 25% chance the second time around.
