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 difference 7/78 - 3 1/4=
ZanzabumX [31]
     <span> here
7 7/8
= [ (8*7) + 7 ] / 8
= (56 + 7) / 8
=63 / 8

similarly,
3 1/4
=[ (4*3) + 1] / 4
= (12 + 1) / 4
= 13/4

----------------------------
now put the values
7 7/8 - 3 1/4
= 63/8 - 13/4
here, take LCM of 8 & 4 which is 8.
now,
[ (1*63) - (2 * 13) ] / 8
= (63 - 26) / 8
= 37/8
= 4 5/8........................[ here, divide 37 by 8 which gives reminder as 5 and divisible value as 4 ]</span>
