y=x+6 y=2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you can set it equal to each other. \(2x=y=x+6\) So you have \(2x=x+6\). Can you solve for x from here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so next i do like terms which is 2x+x = 3x then divide

@micahwood50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

actually first you subtract both sides by x, so you get x to other side. \(2x = x+6\\2x\color{red}{-x}=x+6\color{red}{-x}\\2x-x = 6\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then by like term, you have 2x-x=x So you are left with \(\boxed{x=6}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that clear?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, so i just plug in for the next step thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, so you should have y=12 intersection point is \((6,12)\) You are welcome.
