10 i subtracted 2 from 62 and kept going on subtracting the number I got.
First find the equation of the problem,
y=-2x+62
Plug 40 in for y
40=-2x+62
And solve for x
-22=-2x (I subtracted 62 from both sides)
x=11
y=-2x+62
Plug 40 in for y
40=-2x+62
And solve for x
-22=-2x (I subtracted 62 from both sides)
x=11
