Provide an appropriate response.Consider the equation 5(-3 - x) + x = 14x - 5(3 - x). Now consider the following system of equations solvable by the substitution method: y = 5(-3 - x) + x y = 14x - 5(3 - x).Explain the connections that exist between the single equation and the system of two equations.

What will be an ideal response?
