Question 503640
y = 5x+6
y = 2x+24
.
y=y
so
.
5x+6 = 2x+24
3x = 18
x = 6
.
substitute to find 'y'
.
y = 5x+6
y = 5(6)+6
y = 36
.
Always check your work.
Does y = 2x+24?
2(6) = 12
12+24 = 36
Yes it does.
.
You also can check with a graph.

circle(6,36,.02),
graph(500,500,-5,50,-5,50,5*x+6,2*x+24) )}}}
.
Answer: x=6, y=36
.

.
Done.
