Question

Consider the following set of equations:

Equation A: y = −x + 5
Equation B: y = 6x − 2

Which of the following is a step that can be used to find the solution to the set of equations?

−x = 6x + 2
−x − 2 = 6x + 5
−x + 5 = 6x – 2
−x + 5 = 5x

Answer 1

Since Y equals BOTH (-X+5) and (6X-2), you can set the two equations equal to eacher other; therefore, the answer is: C: -X+5=6X-2
