1. y = x + 3

y = 2x + 4

Explanation:

Step1: Set equations equal

Since \( y = x + 3 \) and \( y = 2x + 4 \), set \( x + 3 = 2x + 4 \).

Step2: Solve for x

Subtract \( x \) from both sides: \( 3 = x + 4 \). Then subtract 4: \( x = 3 - 4 = -1 \).

Step3: Find y

Substitute \( x = -1 \) into \( y = x + 3 \): \( y = -1 + 3 = 2 \).

Answer:

The solution is \( x = -1 \), \( y = 2 \)
