Well... we have to solve the first system of equations given before the choices.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok So as in solve you mean...??

DivineSolar (divinesolar):
So what does y equal
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y =3

Correct, Now you must substitute (3) for y in x = -1/3y - 1
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Let me know what you get.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-3??
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Close.
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Where did you get -3?

wait would it be -2
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Now try.
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Wait yes!
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
There you go!
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Now we have to solve the others.

ok
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Let us solve A
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
What does x = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-2
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Correct, Now you must substitute (-2) for x in 12x + 4y = -12

3
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Nice good, i agree, does that match with our system of solutions?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
So then that makes what your answer?

Actually just stick with A, I am not to sure on A or D
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Unless your gut says otherwise.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
DivineSolar (divinesolar):
Sorry if you get it wrong, i just forgot how to determine if it is linear.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thanks
