Question

The coordinates below represent two linear equations.

How many solutions does this system of equations have?

Line 1
x y
–2 7
0 6
Line 2
x y
3 0
0 –3


A.
0

B.
exactly 1

C.
exactly 2

D.
infinitely many

Answer 1

what do i do after i find the slopes?

Answer 2

6 - 7 / 0 - -2
-1 / 2
-0.5 or -1/2

-3 - 0 / 0 - 3
-3 / -3
1

Answer 3

@acxbox22

Answer 4

i can eliminate d

Answer 5

first find the equations of both lines

Answer 6

what do you mean?

Answer 7

like you are given two points from each line now find its equation
y=mx+b
m=slope b=y intercept

Answer 8

y=-1/2*x+6

Answer 9

@acxbox22

Answer 10

yes correct @funnyguy2
now do the same for the second line

Answer 11

okay

Answer 12

y=-1*x+3

Answer 13

u found the slope for the second line above which is 1 and the y intercept is -3 becasue it intercepts the y axis at (0,-3)
so we get
y=x-3 not y=-x+3

Answer 14

so how do i figure out if it's b or c?
