Hi there :)
We are given 2 equations
y = 3.5x − 3.5 <---equation 1
y = −3.5x + 3.5 <----equation 2
Both tell use what y equals to just take equation 1 and plug it into equation 2
3.5x-3.5=-3.5+3.5
Solve for x

For both equations, solve for x?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Y =3.5x - 3.5
+ 3.5
y + 3.5 = 3.5x
_________________
3.5 3.5
y+3.5
______ = x
3.5

Solve for only the equation i gave
\[\huge~\rm~3.5x-3.5=-3.5x+3.5\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3.5x-3.5=-3.5+3.5
3.5+3.5 = 0
3.5x - 3.5 = 0
X Must = 1

:D

YES :D
Ok now sub in x value to e1
y=3.5x−3.5:
y=3.5x−3.5
y=(3.5)(1)−3.5
y=?
