Answer 1

Answer 2

y = (3/2)x
y = -(1/2)x+4

what you can do @MysticFury is set these two equations equal to each-other. this will give you the x value that satisfies both of them or where both intersect.

first we add 1/2x to both sides .

(3/2)x = (-1/2)x+4
(1/2)x +(1/2)x

2x = 4

x = 2


yes your answer is correct

Answer 3

@Photon336 thanks so much but couldnt it also be A then? we only found out that x = 2 we didnt find y

Answer 4

we can easily plug in x now to find y

(3/2)(2) = 3

(-1/2)(2)+4 = -1+4 = 3

Answer 5

oh okay thanks :D
