HEY! can someone give me a hand with this Alg. 1 assignment? Looking for explanation not answer...
Part A: Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = 4−x and y = 2x + 3 intersect are the solutions of the equation 4−x = 2x + 3.

satellite73 · Answer

because y is equal to y

satellite73 · Answer

meaning this  $y=4-x$  must be equal to this $y=2x+3$
