Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: We can solve this in two ways: Solve the equations directly, or graph the lines and find the point they intersect (which will be the only point at which they are equal.
<u>Solve The Equations: </u>
y = 2x+9
y = -x-3
Set them equal to each other (to find x such that both equations will return the same value for y).
-x-3 = 2x + 9
-3x = 12
x = -4
Use x=-4 in either equation to find y:
y = -x-3
y = -(-4)-3
y = 1
===
The point is (-4,1). That is the point that satisfies both equations:
1) y = 2x+9
y = 2(-4)+9
y = 1, and
2) y = -x-3
y = -(-4)-3
y = 1
=====
We can also solve by graphing and finding the point at which the two lines intersect. A graph is attached.

Answer:
19 or 18
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add the whole numbers
3, 7, and 8
18
Add the fractions

=1
18+1=19
the equilibrium point, is when Demand = Supply, namely, when the amount of "Q"uantity demanded by customers is the same as the Quantity supplied by vendors.
That occurs when both of these equations are equal to each other.
let's do away with the denominators, by multiplying both sides by the LCD of all fractions, in this case, 12.
