Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - (x - 4) = -20

~Simplify

4x - x + 4

~Subtract 4 to both sides

3x = -24

~Divide 3 to both sides

x = -8

Best of Luck!

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - (x - 4) = - 20

Distribute the minus sign

4x - x +4 = -20

Combine like terms

3x+4 = -20

Subtract 4 from each side

3x+4-4 = -20-4

3x = -24

Divide by 3

3x/3 = -24/3

x = -8

How do you start this
lidiya [134]
You have two equations.
since the second is already isolated, sub in x-4 for every y in equation 1 so that 
x^{2} - 4 [(x-4)^{2}] =16

expand, collect like terms, factor to find x, then plug x value back into original equation to find y
