Two lines, C and D, are represented by the equations given below:

Line C: y = x + 14
Line D: y = 3x + 2

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

A. (6, 20), because both lines pass through this point
B. (6, 20), because the point does not lie on any axis
C. (3, 11), because one of the lines passes through this point
D. (3, 11), because the point lies between the two axes

IDK how this question is soo confusing for me

mehek14 · Answer

oke instead of y in the second equation, put the first equation

x + 14 = 3x + 2

anitas. · Answer

the x would equal 6

mehek14 · Answer

ye

mehek14 · Answer

now in line c

put 6 for x

then solve

anitas. · Answer

it would be 20 so now I know it would be (6,20) because both lines pass through this point. am i right?
