They both equal x so set them equal to each other.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4y%2B5=3y-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-7\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for $\"x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=4%28-7%29%2B5\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-28%2B5\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-23\"$
