Use substitution.
y = 2 - x and y = 4x + 7 can become
2 - x = 4x + 7
Now solve for x
-5 = 5x
-1 = x
Now plug -1 for x in either equation.
y = 2 - x -> y = 2 - (-1) -> y = 3
y = 4x + 7 -> y = 4*-1 + 7 -> y = -4 + 7 -> y = 3
So C) is the correct answer.
We can rule out the negative length.

Final answer:
Since absolute values determine the distance between the number and the value whether the value is positive or negative. As distance is always positive.
Thus, |a| is always nonnegative, even though |a|=-a for negative values of a.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
It is said that |a| is always nonnegative even though even though |a|=-a for negative values of a.
Step 2
This is because by the definition of an absolute value, any real number inside an absolute value symbol || will always be positive.
Percent decrease=decrease/original times 100
decrease=23.5-21.2=2.3
original=23.5
percent decrease=2.3/23.5 times 100=0.0978 times 100=9.8%
