Question

Line A: y = x − 2
Line B: y = 3x + 4

Which of the following shows the solution to the system of equations and explains why?

(−3, −5), because the point does not lie on any axis
(−3, −5), because the point satisfies both equations
(−4, −8), because the point satisfies one of the equations
(−4, −8), because the point lies between the two axes

Answer 3

Ok...

Answer 4

Substitute the x-2 for y in the second equation and u would get x-2=3x+4

Answer 5

Now solve for x to get 2x=-6

Answer 6

X=-3

Answer 7

Now substitute -3 in for x in the first equation the get -3+-2

Answer 8

Y =-5

Answer 9

So.... (-3,-5)

Answer 10

Because the coordinates satisfy some both equations

Answer 11

Got it?
