Twice a quantity usually indicates to take two of the things in question; usually this indicates to multiply by 2. Thus "twice a number x" can be written symbolically as 2x. If this is part of a problem, say twice a number x is 6, then we can rewrite algebraically as 2x=6; dividing both sides by 2 yields x=3.

Where will these 2 lines intersect?<br><br> y = 2x + 7 and x = y + 4

defon

To find the intersecting point, you have to put the two formulas equal to each other
First isolate the same variable, in this case y
So y=x-4

Now we can say
2x + 7 = x - 4

Now solve for x

X= 3

Now fill this in in either one of the formulas

Y= 2 (3) + 7
Y= 13

So they’ll intersect at (3,13)
