One can also solve this by calculation:
y=2x-9
y=-2x-1
-
Rearrange either equation to find x. I'll use the first:
y=2x-9
2x = y+9
x = (y+9)/2
Now use this value of x in the second equation:
y = -2x-1
y =-2((y+9)/2)-1
y = (-2y-18)/2)-1
y = -y -9 - 1
2y = -10
y = -5
Now use -5 for y in the rearranged equation:
y = -2x-1
-5 = -2x-1
-2x = -4
x = 2
Solution is (2,-5)
But the question wants a graph solution, which is also fun when you use DESMOS.
Answer:
The question is pushing the point that they think that Barry Sanders retired from the NFL too early by the use of don’t, it should be worded like:

Answer:
$10
Step-by-step explanation:
x is her weekly allowance.
She spent half her allowance and has ½x remaining.
She earned $7, and now has $12.
12 = ½x+7
x = 10
Answer: Choice A. (8, 4)
==========================================================
Explanation:
Because x = 2y, we can replace every copy of x with 2y
Let's do so in the second equation
3x - 4y = 8
3(x) - 4y = 8
3(2y) - 4y = 8 .... x replaced with 2y; now let's isolate y
6y - 4y = 8
2y = 8
y = 8/2 ..... divide both sides by 2
y = 4
Use this y value to find x
x = 2y
x = 2*4
x = 8
So we have x = 8 and y = 4 pair together to get the answer (x,y) = (8, 4) which is choice A.
