Question

Find the solution to the equation y = 1/2x - 2 and y = 3x + 4​

Answer 1

-2.4

Explanation:

Set the expressions equal to each other and solve.

.5x-2=3x+4

.5x-3x=6

-2.5x=6

x=-2.4

Plug in -2.4 into each expression and solve to check your work. You should end up with the same answer from both expressions.
