Answer:

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you know the slope and a point on the line, then you can find the equation with an equation:

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

We have our slope, -1; we have a x1, -2, and a y1, 4, so we're all set to find the equation. Plug in the numbers:

y - 4 = -1 ( x + 2 )

y - 4 = -x - 2

y = -x + 2

Our equation is y = -x + 2

Consider the equation 1/3x−2=x+2. Write a system of linear equations using each side of the equation. Then solve the original eq
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

(-6,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3x − 2 = x + 2 is obtained by equating the following two functions:

y = (⅓)x - 2

y = x + 2

Graph:

Draw two straight lines

1) joining (0,-2) and (6,0)

2) joining (0,2) and (-2,0)

On the graph, you'll see that the above two lines intersect at: (-6,4)

Hence the solution is (-6,4)
