To solve this system of equations algebraically, we can set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x:
x + 2 = -x + 4
2x = 2
x = 1
Now that we have found the value of x, we can substitute it back into one of the original equations to solve for y:
y = 1 + 2
y = 3
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 1 and y = 3.
Solve this system of equations using graphing (you won’t have to show work for this question):
y= x+2
y= - x +4
