what is the point of intersection

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

(4,1)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what you can do from here is plug that point into each system to see which system has that point satisfy it

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

i plug all x with 4 and y with 1 ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

for example, let's check choice A x-2y = 6 4 - 2*1 = 6 ... plug in x = 4 and y = 1 4 - 2 = 6 2 = 6 ... this is FALSE, so (4, 1) is NOT a solution to x-2y = 6 and it's NOT a solution to the overall system So choice A is eliminated

see how I'm doing this?

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):
