y=-4x y=x-15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

set the first y equal to the second y: -4x=x-15 solve from there: -5x=-15 -x=-3 x=3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i do this -5(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are trying to solve for x, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought i had x alredy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isnt x=3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh you mean to solve for y? yes, sorry. plug 3 in for x, so youll have: y=-4x -> y=-4(3) -> y=-12 or y=x-15 -> y=3-15 -> y=-12
