The solution to the equations 3x - 4y=12 and 2x+y=8 are x = 4 and y = 0

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have two equations:

3x - 4y=12 and

2x+y=8

Multiplu by 4 on both side in equation  2x+y=8

8x + 4y = 32

Add the equaton 8x + 4y = 32 and 3x - 4y=12

3x - 4y=12

8x + 4y = 32

11x = 44

x = 4

Similarly, we can find the value of y:

y = 0

Thus, the solution to the equations 3x - 4y=12 and 2x+y=8 are x = 4 and y = 0

The equation for the horizontal line that contains the point E(3, –4)?
Effectus [21]
The slope of a  horizontal line will have a value equal to 0: 
m=0
Point-slope form of a line: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m".
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)

We have a point ( E(3,-4) ) and the slope of this line (m=0); therefore:y
y+4=0(x-3=
y+4=0
y=-4

Answer: the equation for the horizontal line that contains the point E, would be:
y=-4
