Is it (4,0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Help please?

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

It's (4,0). Nice job getting the correct answer! :)

OpenStudy (justin_lee):

(-2, 3) works too. They're both the exact same lines!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks guys I just realized they all work can you help with this one please?

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

OMG, all three are correct answers

OpenStudy (justin_lee):

Wait. So will (3, 1/2).

OpenStudy (justin_lee):

There's no difference between either line. They intersect everywhere.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah I just realized that lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help with this one please?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

(-2,-1) and (4,10) both are N

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you explain it to me please?

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

(-2,-1): -2 is x, and -1 is y. Plug in the two values and solve. (-1) = 2(-2) - 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SO, i have to plug in (-2,-1) into both equtions and it had to work to be a solution and the same for (4,10)

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

Yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you so much I apperciate it I understand now!!

OpenStudy (justin_lee):

Another way to do this is to put y = 2x - 18 into 3x + 2y = -8. Solve for x and y. Since they are both lines, they can only intersect at one point unless they are on top of each other. If that point matches either of the points given in the problem, you know your answer. If that point matches neither of the points in the problem, you also know your answer.

and what methods can I use out of these Complete the Square Method Substitution Method Elimination Method Square Root Method Graphing Method

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know I can use Graphing, substitution how about the rest?

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

You can also use completing the square and elimination method to do this.

OpenStudy (justin_lee):

You can use elimination, graphing, or substitution. This isn't a quadratic equation, so there is no square to complete. Likewise, there is no square root.

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

Whoops

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THanks for your help

OpenStudy (jackofalltradez):

No problem
