Question

2y=4
-x=-3
What is the solution to this system of equations?

Answer 1

first, can you simplify the equations in terms of y and x respectively?

Answer 2

what does that mean?

Answer 3

like for 2y=4, you can divide both sides by 2 and get y=2 which is the simplified version of 2y=4

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

okay, so the 2 simplified equations would be y=2 and x=3. do you know what each of these lines look like?

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

notice how all the x values on the line x=3 are 3 while the y values on teh line y=2 are 2

Answer 8

now can you find the point of intersection?

Answer 9

yes it would b (3,2)

Answer 10

correct!

Answer 11

yay! thank you!

Answer 12

no problem
