Since y must equal both 3x+2 and x-4, we deduce that 3x+2 and x-4 must equal each other. So, we have

3x+2=x-4 \iff 2x+2=-4 \iff 2x=-6 \iff x=-3

Answer:

b. -3

Step-by-step explanation:

the system is:

y=3x+2\\y=x-4

to find the value of x, we need to eliminate the y variable.

We can eliminate the 'y'  by substracting the equations:

y=3x+2\\-(y=x-4)\\-----------\\y=3x+2\\-y=-x+4\\------------\\y-y=3x-x+2+4

which is simplified to:

0=2x+6

and clearing for x:

2x=-6\\x=-6/2\\x=-3

which is option b.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y=6x−1 and passes through the point (−3,4)?
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: y = 6x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have same slope. So, a line parallel to y = 6x − 1 is y = 6x + c.

Now to find c, put (-3,4) to this equation since the line passes through the point.

4 = 6 × -3 + c

4 = -18 + c

4 + 18 = c

c = 22

So, equation is y = 6x + 22
