The y is the same for both equations. Equate them
-x - 5 = 2x + 4 Add x to both sides
- 5 = 3x + 4 Subtract 4 from both sides.
- 9 = 3x Divide by 3
x = -9 / 3
x = - 3
y = - x - 5
y = -(-3) - 5
y = - 2
So that point is where the two equations meet.

To the moderator: This is my own work. I'm using Wolfram to get the answer.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug 1, 2, and 3 into n and you'll get 15, 13, and 11 respectively
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar shapes also maintain a constant proportion of sides. Therefore, we can set up the following equation:
Solving, we get:
We can solve this by finding one of the numbers first
Let the smaller number be y.
Since these 2 numbers are consecutive odd numbers, the larger number should be 2 more than the smaller one (y+2).
Therefore,
y + (y+2) = 284
2y +2 = 284
shift +2 to the other side and turn it into -2
2y = 284 - 2
2y = 282
shift x2 to the other side and turn it into /2
y = 282/2
y = 141
Now we got the smaller number, which is 141, we can also find the larger number by adding 2 to it. 141+2 = 143,
Therefore, your answer is 141 and 143
