Answer 1

To solve the equations for \( x \), we will start by setting the two equations equal to each other, since they both equal \( y \):

1. \( 6 - 3x = x - 2 \)

Now we'll solve for \( x \).

Step 1: Add \( 3x \) to both sides:

\[ 6 = x - 2 + 3x \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 6 = 4x - 2 \]

Step 2: Add \( 2 \) to both sides:

\[ 6 + 2 = 4x \]

\[ 8 = 4x \]

Step 3: Divide both sides by \( 4 \):

\[ x = \frac{8}{4} = 2 \]

So the value of \( x \) is:

\[ \boxed{2} \]
