Our system of equations is:
y = x - 4
y = -x + 6
We can solve this system of equations by substitution. We already have one equation solved for the variable y in terms of x, so we can substitute in this equivalent value for y into the second equation as follows:
y = -x + 6
x - 4 = -x + 6
To simplify this equation, we first are going to add x to both sides of the equation.
2x - 4 = 6
Next, we are going to add 4 to both sides of the equation to separate the variable and constant terms.
2x = 10
Finally, we must divide both sides by 2, to get the variable x completely alone.
x = 5
To solve for the variable y, we can plug in our solved value for x into one of the original equations and simplify.
y = x - 4
y = 5 - 4
y = 1
Therefore, your final answer is x = 5 and y = 1, or as an ordered pair (5,1).

If Jayden needs 900, and he already has 375, first you need to find out how much more money he needs. Do that first.
2. His job pays him 155 a week, so 155w. If he needs to make at least 900, that means that it would be ok if he earned equal to 900, or more. So the amount he earns is greater than or equal to 900.
3. Solve for w. This should give you your answer.
I hope this helps!
