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.

Answer:
She earned $20 in tips.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to work out how much pay she'd get for 12 hours work:
12 x $11.25 = $135 for 12 hours work
Then, find out 2/5 of $11.25 to find out how much she would get for the 2/5 of an hour she worked:
2/5 of $11.25 = $4.50
Add both these sums together to get her total pay for hours worked:
$135 + $4.50 = $139.50
Subtract that sum from her total pay to find out how much money she earned in tips:
$159.50 - $139.50 = <u>$20</u>
Answer:
If asking for the distance, the answer would be C.
