Question

What is y=2x+24 y=-2x

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -6, y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations:

y = 2x + 24

y = -2x

Bring the the equation together and add like terms together:

-2x = 2x + 24

-4x = 24

Divide both sides by -4 to isolate x:

$\frac{-4x}{-4} = \frac{24}{-4} \\\\x = -6$

Find y:

y = -2(-6)

y = 12

Verify:

12 =2(-6) + 12
