Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug x as 4 and y as 2.

2 = 4 - 2

2 = 2 <em>True</em>

2 = 3(4) + 4

2 = 12 + 4

2 = 16 <em>False</em>

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 4 (as x) and 2 (as y) into the 2 equations to see if they fit.

y = x - 2

2 = 4 - 2

2 = 2

The first equation is true for (4,2).

Now try the 2nd one.

y = 3x + 4

2 = 3(4) + 4

2 ≠ 16

So the 2nd equation is not true for (4,2).

Either one not true makes the solution incorrect.

7w + 6 + 2w = (w + 2)

Sindrei [870]

Hey there!

The correct answer is $w = \frac{-1}{2}$

$7w + 6 + 2w = w + 2$ ~ Write the equation

$9w + 6 = w + 2$ ~ Simplify

$8w + 6 = 2$ ~ Subtract $w$ from both sides

$8w = -4$ ~ Subtract $6$ from both sides

$w = \frac{-1}{2}$ ~ Divide both sides by 8

Hope it helps and have a great day!
