6x + y = -2<br> y= -3x + 1<br><br> Graph the solution
Gala2k [10]
6x + y = -2
y = -3x + 1

Substitute the value of y in first equation, 
6x -3x + 1 = -2
3x = -2-1
x = -3/3
x = -1

Now, Substitute it in 2nd equation, 
y = -3(-1) + 1
y = 3+ 1 = 4

Coordinates would be: (-1,4) Mark that point and join with origin.

Hope this helps!

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=-1/3x+4 and passes through the point (6,5)?
natulia [17]
Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of y = -1/3 x + 4 is -1/3.

The equation is

(y - 5) = -1/3 (x - 6)

y = -1/3 x -1/3 (- 6) + 5 = -1/3 x + 2 + 5 = -1/3 + 7

The equation is: y = - 1/3 x + 7

y = -1/3 x
