What is the solution of the system of equations?
nd
y = -2x + 8
y = x - 4

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

There are three ways to solve the system of equations

SubstitutionElimination Graphing

Here, we would use substitution because we have two same variables.

Solve:

Given

y = -2x + 8

y = x - 4

Substitute

-2x + 8 = x - 4

Add 4 on both sides

-2x + 8 + 4 = x - 4 + 4

-2x + 12 = x

Add 2x on both sides

-2x + 12 + 2x = x + 2x

12 = 3x

Divide 3 on both sides

12 / 3 = 3x / 3

x = 4

Hope this helps!! :)

If you need an equation, it would be y=2x+8, y would be how long it grew, x being weeks.if you need how long he was asleep, it would be 4 weeks if he started with no beard, the equation would be x=8÷2if he did have a beard before hand, the equation would be 2w+x=8
