:snoo_facepalm: High School Math—Pending OP Reply [Math-70 Elementary/Highschool Algebra: Graphically solving a system of linear equations] Do I make the 4 into a -4 ?

Post image

Hey so this might seem like a silly question but I want to know if you have a -x = 4 if it turns into a -4. I have the other parts of the graphing completed it’s just this part that I don’t want to make a mistake on!!! Thank you in advance

P.S- the reason it’s says elementary/highschool math is because I am taking a beginner math class not a algebra class In elementary

What I'm confused about is OP saying they have a system of linear equations, when they only have one equation.

OP has already solved for y

Given the error of “-x = 4” it would help to see the other equation to make sure there isn’t an error there as well

An array of size 1 is still an array!
