EXPLANATION:

1.The first thing we must do is use a suitable method that allows us to find the value of y for the two equations of the line

2. The correct and most appropriate method is the matching method.

The exercise is as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} RS\text{ }=8y+4\text{ } \\ ST=5y\text{ }+7 \\ RS=ST\text{ } \\ 8y+4=5y+7 \\ 8y-5y=7-4 \\ 3y=3 \\ y=\frac{3}{3} \\ \textcolor{#FF7968}{y=1} \\ \text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{the answer is y}}\textcolor{#FF7968}{=1}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{as}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ a whole number or y}}\textcolor{#FF7968}{=\frac{3}{3\text{ }}}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ as a }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{fractional}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ number}} \end{gathered}[/tex]
