y = -2/3 x + 3 and 2x + 3y = 9

Question

How many solutions does the following system have?
y = -2/3 x + 3 and 2x + 3y = 9

anonymous · Answer

2 solutions

anonymous · Answer

It would most likely be one. Give me a moment. I shall give you some simple steps.
Make a table with x and y.
Then try to see if they are equal to the answer given.
Ehuman, did you not just give order to give steps?

anonymous · Answer

solve for x, solve for y
x solution plus y solution = 2 solutions

anonymous · Answer

I was going to get to that once we started, telling him how many solutions doesn't give him any answers, unless that is the whole of the question.

anonymous · Answer

@jakerottttte is your question complete?
y = -2/3 x + 3 and 2x + 3y = 9
For part two, is it x=2x+3y=9, or is it y=2x+3y=9

or just solve the 2nd one for "y"
and compare the slopes

@jakerottttte   solve the 2nd one for "y", what do you get for the slope?
