Answer: B. -4

When 2 equations equal the same thing (in this case y) we can just re-write the equations this way:

3x + 1 = 2x - 3

Now, just start picking off little numbers that we don’t really need to get the x alone. I don’t like working with negative numbers, so i’ll get rid of the -3 by adding 3 to it. Since anything you do on one side of an equal sign you have to do on the other, i’ll add 3 to 1, which looks like this:

3x + 1 = 2x - 3
+3 +3
3x + 4 = 2x

Now I need to get both x’s on the same side, so i’ll subtract 3x from 3x, then subtract 3x from 2x:

3x + 4 = 2x
-3x -3x
4= -x

Variables should never be negative, and they look complicated too, so in order to make x positive again i’ll swap it’s side with 4. While doing this, remember that swapping sides means you swap 4 to a negative too:

4 = -x
x= -4

And there’s the answer, X equals -4. If you wanted to solve for y, just plug in the x value (which is -4 in this case) to any one of the equations:

y= 3x + 1
y= 3(4) + 1
y= 12+ 1
y= 13

Hope this helped!

you have to solve the brackets first(6-3=3)

Then solve the division (4/2=2)

lastly the addition (5+4=9)

so we have 9×3=27

27+2=29.
