A pair of linear equations is shown below: y = –3x + 5 y = x + 2 Which of the following statements best explains the steps to solve the pair of equations graphically? On a graph, find the point of intersection of two lines, the first line has y-intercept = 5 and slope = –3 and the second line has y-intercept = 2 and slope = 1. On a graph, find the point of intersection of two lines, the first line has y-intercept = –3 and slope = 5 and the second line has y-intercept = 1 and slope = 2. On a graph, find the point of intersection of two lines, the first line has y-intercept = –5 and slope = 3, and the second line has y-intercept = –2 and slope = –1. On a graph, find the point of intersection of two lines, the first line has y-intercept = 3 and slope = –5 and the second line has y-intercept = –1 and slope = –2.
y = mx+b, do you know what m, b are?

|dw:1430601311645:dw|
how many solutions in each of those graphs
2?
@optiquest
@amistre64
why do you say that
because there are @optiquest
why
there are 2 lines @optiquest
okay but the solution to when they are equal is the intersection of the two lines
if they are parallel they never intersect, if they overlap then they are the same and you have inf solutions, if they cross each other once then you get one solution which is this case
so what do you know about slope intercept form and what does it look like
a
is the answer @optiquest
yes
thank you
